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 gig of factories, destruction of the environment, as she calls it. the young people living in the camp have become her natural allies . there's some toys of us. it's great that so many young people are committed to preserving the forest and water act as vitus does. lots of and that's why these are by it, most of this forest and the area up ahead isn't the drinking water protection zone the some goose entire i'm thing qualify for. it could be not just the trees or 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 constant. 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 include 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. at least the notes here for these are size of siri are standing in front of this darned factory. and yeah, i want to tell you understand about the survey showing the residents of gluten high to didn't want an expansion, idaho one. and we'll continue to fight it. are getting kind of test or should stay on the site that's already been ruined and not clear any more forest china invite the environment. what would we want to your test left side of the story, but our interview requests go on, answered the company isn't from us. for not replying to media or 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 waste water pot, despite tesla's environmental efforts. the giga factory continues to face heavy resistance. in march, a power mask was set on fire. a radical left his group claimed responsibility for the attack which halted production at tesla 4 days costing the company, millions of on musk called the group, the quote, almost eco 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. it's really probably can be something usual to build a factory in a water protection area. people are worried about test. so now is all the body of water where the factory is located is one of the few we have in this region. but the problem is if it were to become polluted and there'd be nothing to replace it with the some good friend 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 june hi to innovation in the future are important to me and i think it's important. tim, good, the testing is here is trula is part of the different citizens initiative together with his friend to be us live. he follows and
6:23 pm
documents the development of you got berlin, so be you definitely stupid test that everyone's talking about test line. tesla also influence has everything to the test and it makes many decisions that provoke discussions we can do without god be. and can they say one of their goals is the battlements information 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. it's all about 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 and 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
6:24 pm
specializes in these is the world's most valuable car company. currently, there are 5 giga factories operating around the world tests. let's giga 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. the plant has generated economic growth in the region around 12000 people currently work a test line between height alone. tesla as such to big name, even jeremy's chancellor old offshore showed up for the opening. the elect, a moving 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 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 calms. some criticize tesla, others be active as the items. 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 concept as well. i guess 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. you know, i'm, when i'm just rather than protesting, they should be trying to get one of the jobs test was offering. how many members 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,
6:26 pm
this is where 2 worlds flush 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. it's up to a business. if anything is a few dentist me 5 years ago, i would have said tesla, amazing. i know them, i don't know. i have a different opinion without a 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 talked about and what does it say? stuff tests. well, filming in front of the main entrance,

6:28 pm
behind it. one of the richest people in the world has decided this thing should go here and people eat out of his hand, the wife and i can, i don't have globally connected is the richest people in the world generally have much more leeway many more context. and we may be having our treehouse of young about most of us 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. while the fight against the tesla continued this, the, it's something i never imagined would ever be able to do as an industry to find a page on a wall or up in the sky award winning illustrator,
