The electric vehicle revolution is well underway. Countries worldwide are vying to get in on the "green rush" caused by this transition. Car culture is undergoing a profound change.

A public advocate for immediate and significant action on the climate crisis, at home Tom is an enthusiastic adopter of renewable energy technologies and is currently the proud owner of a Mustang Mach E 4X.
