You can also charge at work, which is actually generally better as the grid moves to more solar as then the demand lines up with generation.
Employers need to step up their game and start offering charging if they want people in the office.

Very true. I've seen some tech companies doing this in conjunction with adding roof solar to get tax breaks. Are other industries stepping up as well?
Of course in hind-sight I recall we had about 16 chargers at the time we had over 20k employees. There were a lot of Tesla's in the parking lot but many of those people were older and had homes. Those chargers also caused a lot of drama. People would unplug other peoples cars, the other people would send videos from their Tesla to corporate security. I would just park my old ICE truck near the front door since I got to work early.
A lot of commercial office spaces around me (DFW) have charging stations in their parking garages as a building amenity.
Which means, the only initiative for climate change that ever needed to happen is a higher and higher taxes on fossil fuels, and everything would flow downhill from that.
But that was never on the table, so it was always all just lip service.
We effectively managed it in Canada, but it’s become political poison.
