Elon Musk said people “shouldn’t vilify the oil and gas industry” in an interview with former President Donald Trump on X.

Elon Musk, who famously owns an electric vehicle company and has said he wants to move humanity to “a sustainable energy civilization,” told former President Donald Trump during an interview on X that “we shouldn’t vilify the oil and gas industry.” Musk interviewed Trump on his social media platform, where the livestream was delayed over 40 minutes due to technical difficulties.

“But I think it is something we need to move towards... It’s probably better to move there faster than slower. But like without vilifying the oil and gas industry and without causing hardship in the short term.” But he quickly contradicted himself. Musk acknowledged that the air will become harder to breath with the continued use of fossil fuels, causing people “headaches and nausea.” But that was no reason to quickly transition away from the use of planet-heating fuels.
