Tesla Motors Earns $26 Million in the 2nd Quarter—Thanks to the Government

Charts: Without subsidies, Elon Musk’s electric-car startup wouldn’t have rolled this far. jdlasica/Flickr Tesla Motors surprised Wall Street this afternoon, announcing second-quarter profits of $26 million on $405 million in revenue. Since it reported its first modest profit in May, the electric-car company cofounded by billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk already had seen its share price more than double, and you can expect it to soar even higher when the markets open tomorrow. Many analysts, after all, were expecting Tesla to take a hit. But so far, the company’s profits have relied on government subsidies and initiatives. Tesla’s own accomplishments are impressive. The company, founded in 2004, is selling its all-electric cars as fast as it can produce them, even though the baseline price for a Model S sedan is nearly $70,000. Car and Driver says the Model S is possibly the best car it has ever tested. Musk has built a successful company after years of scraping by low on funds while sinking money into researching and developing amazing cars. To keep reading, click here.

Can a Carbon Tax Work Without Hurting the Economy? Ask British Columbia

green4us

Five years in, BC’s carbon tax has successfully reduced greenhouse gas emissions in a stable economy. Hobolens/Flickr Carbon emissions have an unavoidable cost. When we burn fossil fuels and release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, it increases the greenhouse effect. The resulting climate change has costs, for example by causing more extreme weather. More frequent and intense heat waves and droughts can damage crops, causing food prices to rise, more intense floods can cause more property damage, etc. Lacking a price attached to carbon emissions in the marketplace, we’re effectively putting those costs on a credit card. We may not immediately see the costs, but they keep building up. In fact they’re building up with interest, because the costs of climate damage are higher than the costs of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. When we put a price on carbon in the marketplace, consumers can see the costs associated with greenhouse gas emissions and adjust their consumption in an informed manner without continuing to build up that climate credit card debt.
