long since you have the dream force. yeah. and for the future feelings about what's going on in the industry. instead of being discussed across the continent, d, w, and use africa every friday on the w. the, the people here are being taken for a ride test level to make sure that this is the gemstone area for 74 years. and for the water system, we oppose such as the pen here in canada because we can't afford to carry on this way. why so who lives? multi billionaire, he alone must once it's company tesla to expand the giga factory in germany, knocked down parts of this forest. turning what was once

a sleepy little german town upside down. it's a battle of david versus goliath. the 24 year old roman is ready to climb up to his current home. he has been living in a tree house in the forest for the past month. and that's not, 1st of all, i love, forest isn't very much, i always feel deeply happy in the woods ever since i got here. i've also felt fully grounded. but a part of this forest is to be cut down to expand a factory that is building climate friendly electric cars. a contradiction says roman who is set to start his master's, specializing in environmental protection. he and others are occupying the trees as a form of civil resistance to tesla. many of the activists cover their faces when the cameras are on. roman's name is also only an alias. test size. this

test is great at selling what they're doing as a solution to green alternatives to what we already have. we can't afford to carry on this way and that's when it's like a long term lots. everyone will be able to have a car come up as long as it's because income sheet on auto hub. ready ready ready wire parts of as far as endangered. let's run through it. in 2090 the dealer must announce the tesla would be coming to the lead height of a small town. just east of berlin. musk bought land from the state of brandenburg to build a mass of factory. this plan produces tesla's model. why? for the european and international market, a mid range s u v, which was the world's best selling car last year. currently, test left produces around $300000.00 electric cars per year at queen height and wants to more than tripled this number of scaling. the production process would require tesla to expand the giga factory, knocking down a part of

a forest for logistics center on the train station. this is something we've hired a resident model we la jolla will not stand for. we met her because she found the local citizens initiative and is campaigning loudly against any further expansion. since day one, she's been fighting against the giga factories, destruction of the environment, as she calls it. the young people living in the camp have become her natural allies . there's some toy as it is, it's great that so many young people are committed to preserving the forest and water act as wide as there's lots of and that's why these are the most of this forest. and the area up ahead isn't the drinking water protection zone. me some goose entire, i'm think off of what's good beach. not just the trees are a point of concern in the ground beneath live vital water supplies. if these were to be contaminated, tens of thousands of people might find themselves without drinking water. she fears

this isn't con, starve. it's a bottle of david versus goliath. it's a fight that just makes you feel powerless and angry. at times i must in a recent poll, held including height of over 60 percent of citizens voted against the test. those plans to expand the planned even though tesla, hudson scaled down its plans. the company is still set on expanding its facility of your stay notes here for these are try stops here. we are standing in front of this darned factory on. yeah, i want to tell you understand about the surveys showing the residents of gluten high to didn't want an expansion, idaho one. and we'll continue to find it out. i can can test. i should stay on the site that's already been ruined and not clear any more forest china and vitamin vitamin, who we want to hear tesla side of the story. but our interview requests go on, answered the company is in from us for not replying to media requests. however,

what is known is that they built a brand new industrial water filtration system. it allows the giga factory to recycle almost all of its industrial wastewater. but despite tesla's environmental efforts, the giga factory continues to face heavy resistance. in march, a power mask was set on fire. a radical leftist group played responsibility for the attack, which halted production at tesla for days, costing the company. millions, the lot must called the group the quote, dumbest e co terrorists on earth for stopping the production of electric vehicles and visited the plant include high to the attack was condemned by local authorities and marked the biggest escalation. so far we want to hear an expert's take on the environmental situation. i need water

scientist, my team push. he says the area has been heavily impacted by climate change. and despite recent reins is usually one of the driest regions in germany, of the public than usual to do the factory underwater protection area. people are worried about test. so now the body of water with the factory is located as one of the few we have in this region. the cobra is if it were to become polluted, that'd be nothing to replace it with a flip. some of that. but the factory also has the porters among the local population. to my knowledge, i screwed up. my name is albert cooler and from green. hi to innovation in the future are important to me and i think it's important. tim. good. the testing is here i've is trula as part of the different citizens

initiative together with his friend to be us live. he follows and documents the development of giga, berlin. for the you definitely see the test that everyone's talking about. tests like tesla, also instruments has everything, testing and makes many decisions that provoke discussions we can do without god being can they say one of their goals is the battle misinformation that has been pulled out by some of the test. let's opponents their initiative is they are to inform fellow citizens and enable affect driven debate grounded on a scientific basis. they say, just like the protesters in the camp, they are also worried about climate change. as other than everyone always says, electric cars can stop climate change on their own. that's true, but public transport can't either. nothing on its own can stop climate change. we need lots of different solutions and it is a who transportation is one of the world's largest contributors to carbon

emissions. electric vehicles are seen as part of the solution by many tesla which specializes in these is the world's most valuable car company. currently, there are 5 giga factories operating around the world tests. let's get factory in germany opened in 2022 and is the only one in europe. test will make sure that this is a gemstone for the area for germany, for europe, and for the wells of the plant has generated economic growth in the region around 12000. people currently work a test line between height alone. tesla is such a big name, even germany's chancellor old offshore showed up for the opening. the i'd like to move it, electron mobility will shape the mobility of the future. that is clear here today the clock

despite the support from the highest levels of government, the 9000 people actually living and we've hired to have very mixed opinions on tesla. the many people we met who refused to speak on cameras, said there was a tear running through the fabric of the town. families and friends are divided into separate comes some criticize tesla, others be active as judgment. yeah, i think it's a shame, but if it brings any benefits to going high to in the region, i'd say yes and the other i was on went up to spike up, which i was basically in favor of tests are coming here. i still stand by that because it can only advance the region. i was actually a bit against expansion though, because i think they should use the space they already have 1st to make sure, you know, i'm not, i'm just rather than protesting, they should be trying to get one of the jobs test was offering. how many members i probably never worked a day in their lives, they should work for 48 years like i did. that entire will just lay about it's good

for nothing's going. the, this is where 2 worlds flush. ready on their way to work in the giga factory test, the workers have to pass by a t test lab protesters. very few of them ever stop at the info stands to chat with the actors. it's difficult for women to find people to talk to. so it's just him and the car is up to a business. if anything is a few that has to be 5 years ago, i would have said testament, amazing. i know them. i don't know. i have a different opinion with alta point than not such a car from these days. yeah, i think that we're simply spoiling a lot of opportunities with excessive individual transport. uh, fox news hall. so i told her own what does it say stuff tested?

well filming in front of the main entrance, we are approached by a test flight employee, a hello english. i just wanted a wondering what you guys filming, what are you guys up to which outlet you are from? yes, i'm from pesa or are you from the arse? so to say we don't really have the press department of testing. so usually our policy is, uh, i mean everybody has their own road here, obviously, so they can do whatever they want. but we usually have this then that then nobody talks to the press. woman says it will be difficult to find common ground when asked what a solution could look like. he tells us the 1st step for him is to stop test was expansion. and then maybe some day to end the production of eaves and instead build trims buses. and trains in what was once the test was giga factory. but it's not

realistic. the must be the investigator such power behind it. one of the richest people in the world has decided this thing should go here. and people eat out of his hand, thousands of life and i'm going to globally connected is the richest people in the world. generally have much more leeway many more context then we may be having our tree has to be on the bottom of the and so he's back in his world. that's so different from the joint giga factory, the, the forest seems to be peaceful right now. a while the fight against the tesla continuous of the i don't know my, my name is no, mark is my ill, i'm

a nurse. i fled from the war and cartoon 2nd. my name is sharia. hum done. i was in kent bell and we were attacked and my children who imagines my name is how much do i fled after having lost my 2 children and one of my legs just 3 of 10000000 in volts on sit on global us in 15 minutes. oh d w the not just another day. so much is happening all at once. we take time to understand this is the day i'm in that's look at current use events analyzed by experts and critical thing here is not just another

new. so weekdays on dw, the or the
