Elon Musk: Climate Change Reality Check — 50 Years, Not 5

Elon Musk just broke down the measurable facts on climate change, energy subsidies, and why solar + batteries are the clear path forward. This clip covers the 50-year timeline, China’s solar scale, nuclear’s limits, the Sun’s dominance, and the raw materials that make full transition possible. No hype. Just physics, engineering, and real capability.
