Elon sent a tweet:
"@TheEconomist This may sound surprising coming from me, but I agree with The Economist. Rex Tillerson has the potential to be an excellent Sec of State."
with the rationale that Rex Tillerson shares a common belief in climate change and carbon tax.
I myself think that is illogical because Trump Administration is pro-business, pro-fossil fuel, pro-tax cuts.
Trump has long claimed climate change as a hoax and particularly stated against carbon tax:
Exxon continued to fund various climate denial organizations despite of its support for carbon tax since 2009.
Tillerson has been dangling carbon tax for you to reach up and get it for years but Huffington Post said it best:
“Exxon Supports A Carbon Tax Except When There Is A Vote On A Carbon Tax,”
Some anti-Tillerson include:
Sierra Club,
Union of Concerned Scientists,
League of Conservation Voters,
Greenpeace,
Environmental Defense Fund,
350.org
State Attorney Generals (including New York, Massachusetts, California) are investigating about Exxon knew about the science of climate change decades ago but continued to fund climate denial groups and deceived both shareholders and public as well.
I am polling to see would you do the tweet if you were Elon Musk?
Thanks!
