In Desperate Bid to Get Elon Musk to Stay, Tesla Awards Him $29 Billion

futurism.com Unknown 2025-12-06 16:16:59

After many months of plummeting sales and disastrous earnings, Tesla has awarded its controversial CEO a whopping $29 billion worth of its shares in a bid to keep him at the helm of the carmaker. After a Delaware judge threw out his astronomical pay package last year, which was worth $56 billion at the time, shareholders are terrified that his incredibly damaging leadership could soon come to an end. While continuing to attempt to get the pay package reinstated, the board granted him a "good f

States Are Moving to Protect Access to Vaccines

wired.com Emily Mullin 2025-12-11 08:53:46

With US Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. already shaking up federal vaccine policy, some states are stepping in to preserve access to lifesaving shots in anticipation of further changes. The federal government has historically had a major influence on vaccine policy through the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), formed in 1964 to develop science-based recommendations on how vaccines should be used. The recommendations are almost always adopted by the

Where are vacation homes located in the US?

As of 2023, the US has around 142.3 million housing units: roughly one home for every 2.4 people in the country. The vast majority of these homes – 127.5 million – are occupied. The remaining 14.8 million homes are vacant. Of these, around 4.8 million homes, or around 3.5% of the total, are vacant because they’re seasonal, or vacation, homes.

The ICJ Rules That Failing to Combat Climate Change Could Violate International Law

If a country fails to take decisive action to protect the planet from climate change, it could be breaking international law and be held liable for damages caused to humanity.
