The Electric Tortoise and the Fleet Hare
Henry Ford and Thomas Edison were friends for half a century. When he’s making presentations about fleet electrification, Rajiv Singhal includes a slide with a photo of Ford whispering into Edison’s ear. "It’s like he's saying, ‘Our two industries are going to intersect,’" says Singhal, who leads the zero emissions transportation team at 1898 & Co., Burns & McDonnell’s consultancy subsidiary.
