The village of Moerdijk, in the Netherlands, is facing potential demolition to make way for port and industry expansion, as well as new energy infrastructure. The local government has proposed the village's dissolution, leaving residents emotionally distressed and feeling unprepared. The process, known as 'onteigening', could take longer than initially expected, with 2028 being considered unrealistic.
