It was found that the climate will not be negatively affected by Lithium-Ion Battery production as long as the upstream source in the supply chain uses energy sources that are renewable and environmentally friendly. This relates to Tesla energy because to reveals that these electric vehicles can be beneficial to helping the environment and possibly slowing down the issue of climate change as long as these energy sources are executed within moderation. Also, as Tesla created batteries for the business of their electric vehicles, Elon Musk and his company then moved on to using batteries for storage of energy use as well. Battery usage and energy from batteries compared to fossil fuels is more environmentally friendly and does its part in slowing down global climate change.

Continuing on this topic, in 2006, Elon Musk adopted “Solar City” to install and then sell solar energy generation systems. Fast forward ten years later to the year 2016, and SolarCity did its part in distributing and installing solar energy systems for about 325,000 people around America. Elon Musk and Tesla’s goal since SolarCity’s adoption and success has been to influence the world to do their part in making the switch to sustainable energy, accelerating the plan to save planet Earth as we know it. Tesla has done a great job in helping to slow down the issue of Global Climate Change with their electric vehicles and ways of transitioning into using sustainable energy.

Another interesting fact that on emissions from electric vehicles compared to gas vehicles titles, it was proven that electric vehicles do not have as much as a positive impact on the environment in terms of Co2 emissions as people think. There are a few reasons for this, one of them being that electric vehicles need to obtain a lot of power from the electricity grid in order for them to operate correctly. As far as greenhouse gases/emissions (GHG) from the electricity grid, electric vehicles are actually not consistently better than gas-controlled vehicles. A study was done seeing which vehicles trailed more GHG and it was found that in one out of eight regions, the gas powered vehicles has just a little more GHG released than the electric vehicle that depends on electricity power obviously that traveled the same distance. This relates to Tesla because they are a company that is built on electric vehicles that help the issue of climate change, but some studies do show that these vehicles actually might not be as efficient in doing this after all.
