I recently discovered that electric car maker Tesla set up shop on Sydney Martin Place. Beautiful vehicles indeed. It seems like the future is arriving, slowly but surely. I’m not so sure that all transportation will be electric by the year 2030, but we’re moving in the right direction, albeit painfully slowly. All we need now is for these cars to become affordable and for electricity to be generated by means other than burning coal, as is sadly still the case in most of Australia.
