Deep-Sea Mining Moratorium Proposal at Tesla Puts the Future of Sustainably-Sourced Metals in the Spotlight

Today, Tesla Inc. (NYSE: TSLA) shareholders will vote on a proposal, filed by shareholder representative As You Sow, asking Tesla to adopt a deep-sea mining moratorium. Tesla has yet to take a public stand on the controversial issue of deep-sea mining, in stark contrast to peers, including BMW, Volvo, Volkswagen, Rivian, and Renault, which have each signed a moratorium. A similar proposal voted on at the General Motors shareholder meeting on June 4 received 12% support, a solid vote of support for this new issue.
