This title is of course pure click bait. Elon should not have to listen to me. This should be the competence of some executives at Tesla Europe HQ in Amsterdam. But Tesla California HQ could indeed ask why this writer is yammering about the European sales infrastructure (or lack thereof).

Despite the fact that global coal demand is expected to rise for a second year in a row in 2018, the International Energy Agency nevertheless believes that coal demand will remain somewhat net-stable through 2023 due primarily to declines in Europe and North America being offset by strong growth in India and Southeast Asia.
The World Bank and US government have been planning support for a new coal plant in Kosovo for over a decade. But could the falling cost of renewable energy combined with cutting-edge air pollution research change the equation?
The 52nd issue of the Renewable energy country attractiveness index (RECAI) published by EY released earlier this month shows that the world’s leading renewable energy markets are content to bide their time amidst the larger geopolitical instability that threatens so many other aspects of the globe.
Imagine a world where every purchase has an associated carbon price, which is offset by REDD+ projects. Each tonne of carbon saved through REDD+ projects could be registered on the blockchain, and tracked by people offsetting their purchases. The technology could in theory, remove the complexities associated with polycentric governance, and allow forest owners to claim a larger share of the benefit for protecting their forests, by interacting peer-to-peer with the consumers making purchases.
In a world where humanity acknowledged that its addiction to meat was the single largest human contribution to global climate change, we would want alternatives and they would taste good. It turns out that somebody is thinking ahead, and that guy’s name is George Vou, founder and CEO of Mighty Meat. We had a chat with George when he came on our radar as one of the participants in this year’s ClimateLaunchpad Global Grand Final.
Electric vehicle conferences pop up left and right these days. Which ones should you attend? How about the ones where I’m presenting and moderating panels?
New research shows particulate matter from burning fossil fuels can accumulate in the placenta of pregnant women. Is this the information we need to convince us to stop burning fossil fuels?
Greece’s Regulatory Authority for Energy announced on Wednesday the results of its first-ever renewable energy auction, in which it awarded a total of 277 megawatts (MW) to wind and solar technologies.
