What Climate can learn from SpaceX
🚀 Topic: What Climate can learn from SpaceX - increasing the velocity of public-private partnerships to restore planetary health.
🌍 Overview: As SpaceX's valuation surpasses $200B, solidifying American leadership in spaceflight technology and innovation, and built by one of the most formidable engineering teams in history, what lessons can we draw from this success closer to home?
It's tempting to attribute SpaceX's monumental achievements solely to its enigmatic and sometimes controversial leader, viewing the company as a purely commercial triumph—yet this is more myth than fact.
