## Climate scientist Susan Solomon: ‘Let’s not give up now – we’re right on the cusp of success’

She is known for her work in the 1980s which established how the Earth’s protective ozone layer was being depleted by human-made chemicals.

The automaker is obviously aware of this, slashing prices on popular models like the Model Y as inventory piles up.

Buyers aren’t biting though and now the automaker has so much unsold inventory that, as Sherwood News reports, they’re being stored in lots that can be seen from space.
