Trillion
Tesla has become the latest company – and arguably the first company with a core sustainability mission – to be valued at over $1 trillion (that’s $1,000,000,000,000), following an order of 100,000 Model 3 EVs by Hertz, simultaneously making CEO Elon Musk the richest person in the world. Tesla is the youngest in the trillion-dollar club, founded in 2003, joining Saudi Aramco (the only fossil legacy company), Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, and Alphabet/Google. Such concentration of power is a worrying trend, but also has the potential to speed the transition to a thriving future, if we ensure they use their impact wisely.
