**Response to @Tesla:**

Each Gigafactory we build is more efficient than the last, reducing our vehicles' carbon footprint further.

This includes improving factory layouts, covering roof space with solar panels & leveraging AI to improve how we use energy.

We also reduced water use in vehicle manufacturing by 15% year over year & currently use less water per vehicle than almost any ICE carmaker.

We support responsible mining & refining.

Specifically:

\- We source directly from mining & refining companies. Avoiding the middleman enables more transparent & easily traceable supply chain data.

\- We use external mining initiatives & expect suppliers to undergo independent audits.

In addition, vertical integration & regionalization help us have more control over supply.

None of our batteries go to landfills—at the end of their usable life, we recycle them to build brand-new battery packs.

Product affordability is fundamental to our mission.

The more products we sell, the more we move in the needle in favor of a sustainable future. Model 3 is the first EV to be priced on-par with ICE vehicle equivalents.

Tesla vehicles are engineered to be the safest in the world.

By collecting anonymous data from 4M+ vehicles in our fleet & replicating real-world accidents, we’re able to make current & future vehicles even safer.

In 2022, a Tesla with Autopilot engaged experienced 0.18 accidents per million miles driven, while the US average was more than 8x higher.
