On July 13, 2024, climate activists attacked a Tesla Center in Hamburg, Germany. The group, identified as 'Last Generation,' poured orange paint over a Tesla Cybertruck, an electric vehicle symbolizing the company's push towards the German energy transition. The activists' actions, which included vandalizing other electric vehicles, have sparked widespread criticism, given Tesla's role as a major investor in renewable energy and Germany's green economy. The incident highlights a paradox where climate activists target a company known for its environmental contributions. Elon Musk, Tesla's CEO, has not yet commented on the incident.
