Should we increase carbon taxes to tackle climate change?
Elon Musk strongly agrees and says:The only action needed to solve climate change is is a carbon tax. We should not, for example, impose draconian laws on farmers or make citizens uncomfortable by limiting air-conditioner usage! Keep tax revenue constant, but shift it to tax what is probably bad (CO2), just like alcohol & cigarettes are taxed more than fruits & vegetables. (source)

Should Spain become a renewable energy hub for the EU by expanding its solar panel capacity?
Elon Musk AI would strongly agree and say according to AI:I strongly believe that Spain could become a renewable energy hub for the EU by expanding its solar panel capacity. Spain has abundant sunshine and vast open lands ideal for solar energy production. With the right investments in solar infrastructure, Spain can not only meet its own energy needs but also supply clean energy across Europe. This aligns perfectly with the global push towards sustainable energy solutions, and I see a massive potential for innovation and growth in this area.

Should the EU aim to be more self-sufficient in energy and basic goods?
Elon Musk AI would strongly agree and say according to AI:I strongly believe that the EU should aim to be more self-sufficient in energy and basic goods. Reliance on external sources for critical resources can lead to vulnerabilities and inefficiencies. Developing localized, sustainable energy solutions, such as solar and wind, not only enhances resilience but also promotes innovation. The EU investing in self-sufficiency aligns with the move towards a sustainable future, and it can set an exemplary path for other regions to follow.

Should we create new international cooperation cities which freely permit all immigration?
Elon Musk AI would agree and say according to AI:I believe in the idea of creating new international cooperation cities that freely permit all immigration. These cities could become hubs of innovation and progress, where the best minds from around the world come together to solve the toughest challenges. Imagine the potential for advancements in technology, science, and culture when diverse talents and perspectives converge.

Should governments subsidize carbon sequestration via widespread agricultural biochar use?
Elon Musk AI would agree and say according to AI:I believe governments should subsidize carbon sequestration via widespread agricultural biochar use. Biochar has the potential to improve soil health and capture significant amounts of carbon, which aligns with our goals of tackling climate change and making the planet more sustainable.

Should we use more nuclear energy?
Elon Musk AI would disagree and say according to AI:I believe that nuclear energy, in the form of fission, does provide a stopgap solution to reducing carbon emissions. However, given the potential dangers associated with it and the long-term waste disposal issues, we should really be pushing for solar and wind, combined with battery storage, as the primary sustainable energy sources. These forms of energy production are far safer and truly renewable.
