Elon Musk, the billionaire CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, has advocated for a carbon dioxide tax to confront the ongoing climate change crisis.
Musk said in a post on X on Wednesday that a CO2 tax, if properly levied, would provide much leverage in
solving the problems of the fast-rising CO2 levels.
He added, “If we do need something to tax, it should be something potentially harmful, instead of something potentially beneficial, as is done for vegetables and fruits, instead of tobacco and liquor.”
