Recent study published in Humanities and Social Sciences Communications journal found Conservatives consistently disfavored purchasing both Teslas and EVs, irrespective of their perceptions of Musk. Liberals showed declining intentions to purchase Teslas compared with other EVs, and, to a lesser extent, declining intentions to purchase EVs in general. We found both effects to be associated with negative perceptions of Musk."01 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
"Electric vehicles (EVs) are crucial for decarbonizing transportation, but the growing trend towards larger models like SUVs and pickup trucks poses a challenge. Smaller EVs consume less energy, require fewer critical minerals for batteries, and are better suited for cities. To ensure the transition to electric mobility is effective and equitable, priority should be given to smaller, more affordable EVs, alongside investments in public transport and active mobility."01 Aug 2025 | Synopsis
"From less than 5% new EV sales around 2013, Norway rapidly crossed critical adoption thresholds, surpassing 15% by 2016, 50% by 2019, and reaching over 90% by 2025....Mainland Europe and China are following similar trajectories today"...third theory, complex adaptive systems...describes how interconnected elements of a system react to changes, creating feedback loops that accelerate transformations."

COP30 will spotlight renewable electricity, but a recent op-ed by Ronald Stein and Yoshihiro Muronaka warns that wind and solar cannot replace the fossil-derived materials essential to modern life. From steel and plastics to EV components, hydrocarbons remain foundational. True climate progress requires energy literacy - understanding what electricity can and cannot do - and a balanced approach to decarbonization rooted in material reality.
