Save the World with Tesla EVs... but don't cut down any carbon trapping trees to do so! dw.com A German court has ordered the temporary halt of the development of a Tesla development site in a forest outside of Berlin. The Higher Administrative Court of Berlin-Brandenburg (OVG) ruled late on Saturday that it must first consider an appeal from the Green League Brandenburg, an environmental protection association, against the tree felling. Environmental organizations became outraged once the cutting of trees over 91 hectares of forest commenced Thursday. The Green League called for an immediate stop to the felling and had filed an emergency appeal on Friday to put a stop on the construction of Elon Musk's "Gigafactory." "We are calmly awaiting the decision of the OVG," government spokesman Florian Engels said on Sunday. "This will be taken for granted," he added. "We then focus on the timely decision of the OVG," minister of economics in the German state of Brandenburg Jörg Steinbach wrote on Twitter.
