Tesla’s carbon credits scheme is like a get-rich-quick scheme in the middle of a climate crisis. Selling emissions to others is akin to selling someone else’s sweat for a profit. Elon Musk’s political alignment is like a self-imposed tar and feathers costume, repelling buyers faster than a Tesla in the rain. With sales plummeting 50% in Europe, it’s not just the carbon credits at risk, but Tesla’s entire greenwashing narrative. Meanwhile, Asian EVs are the new stealth bombers, bombing the market with affordability and innovation, leaving Tesla’s aging lineup looking like an uncool prom date with a new set of braces. It’s a hilarious spectacle of automakers playing hot potato with their carbon emissions, using Tesla as a juicy potato to dodge the heat of climate fines. If Europe wants to truly tackle climate goals, they should just declare ‘climate fatigue’ and ban carbon credits, letting the real green heroes step forward.
