‘Dumb way to look at’: Vinod Khosla slams Musk over his CO2-level tutorial to Trump [Video]

Venture capitalist Vinod Khosla on Wednesday slammed billionaire Elon Musk over his climate-talk tutorial to Republican Party Presidential candidate Donald Trump, saying his thoughts about CO2 ppm (parts per million) levels and their consequences were simply “dumb”. 

In a thread on X social media platform, Khosla said that regarding Trump’s point of the temperature going up in some places and down in others, “you know as well as I that’s a dumb way to look at it. The aggregate macro trends are indisputable. The earth is warming”. He said that he does not expect former US President “to know the nuances of various CO2 ppm levels and their consequences, and him reaching out to the person who has arguably done more for climate than anyone else is pretty sensible”.

“You had a responsibility that I think you largely abdicated by downplaying the reality of things,” Khosla told Musk.
