Elon Musk Reveals World Changing Plan
Elon Musk discusses his optimistic vision for the future, emphasizing the significant potential of solar power and desalination in addressing global water and energy challenges. Speaking at a conference in Bali, Musk highlights the extensive mangrove reforestation efforts in Indonesia and expresses confidence in the future, stressing the importance of avoiding complacency.
Musk points out that Earth, predominantly covered by water, should leverage its vast water resources through affordable desalination and efficient transport.
He argues that fresh water availability hinges on energy, and recent advancements in desalination have made it more economical. Musk envisions a bright future powered by sustainable energy, particularly solar power, which he believes is vastly underestimated.
He explains that solar energy, combined with battery storage, can meet the world’s energy demands, including for individual consumption and hydroponic agriculture.
Further, Musk underscores the dramatic cost reductions in solar power and battery storage over recent years
Advocating for a solar-plus-battery approach to solve global energy needs. He encourages renewed attention to the potential of solar energy, noting that a relatively small solar array could power entire countries.
