The spark that Tesla lit over a decade ago is about going off. It seems that everyone in the world is finally grouping to go green in a big way. Whether or not that means we will ever live in a fuel-free world is a separate question, but it means we will be bringing in less fuel from separate countries, possibly putting strains on their economies.
