I remember reading a while back that we could probably plant our way out of climate change if we planted something like a trillion trees.

Russia's Putin praises Elon Musk as an 'outstanding person' and 'talented businessman'
PUBLISHED TUE, SEP 12 2023 8:14 AM EDT
UPDATED 3 HOURS AGO

Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday praised Elon Musk, calling the Tesla and SpaceX founder a "talented businessman."

Putin made the comments at the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, Russia, as he spoke about Russia's space program.

"Elon Musk ... is undoubtedly an outstanding person. It must be admitted. I think the whole world admits it. He is an active, talented businessman," Putin said, according to a Reuters translation.

Putin said Musk does business with the support of the U.S. state.

The Russian president added that Moscow is "willing to develop" support for private businesses in the country.
