Peninsula | Environment & Forest Defense | Labor & WorkersTesla: What Kind of Green?
Photos of demo in front of showroom in Menlo Park, Calfornia. Corporate media aired coverage of the demonstration at 6 and 11 pm on Bay Area Channel 5. Thanks to the Raging Grannies for these songs:
Tesla Don't Go to Downey (tune: MICHAEL ROW THE BOAT ASHORE) Tesla dreamt up fancy cars, in San Caaar-los They're a start-up on the move, in San Caaar-los Now they're selling these cars on, El Camino Fancy showroom for the stars on, El Camiii-no Why not build the cars nearby, like in Fremont There's an empty auto site, right in Fremont Can't believe they'd build green cars, down in Downey Where some toxic wastes were found, down in Downey Electric cars will pave the way People Rise Up Built in Safe Environments Tesla Wise Up! GREEN CARS (tune: My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean) Oh, Downey LIes on a big brownfield OH downey is in a strange place If Tesla is green why a brownfield Please build on a site that is safe! Green Cars Green Cars Oh why would you build them on toxic waste Green Cars Green Cars Don't make this decision in haste!

The Nummi plan in Fremont is closing down...why can't Tesla hire the displaced UAW workers?
Actually 'twas not a problem, said the Grannies. They protest along this strip of El Camino now and then, and have a "friend" in "Officer Matt".
