#Spain closes airspace to #US planes involved in #IranWar, defense minister says
Spain has closed its airspace to US planes involved in attacks on Iran, a step beyond its previous denial of use of jointly-operated military bases, Defence Minister Margarita Robles said Monday.
"We don't authorize either the use of military bases or the use of airspace for actions related to the #war in #Iran," she told reporters in Madrid.

A decade ago, Spain was one of Europe's more expensive power markets, and critics said it was investing too much in solar energy. Now, the average wholesale price for electricity in the country is one of the lowest in Europe. Oxford professor and energy policy advisor Jan Rosenow writes for his newsletter about how that happened.

The company I've worked for for a few years has gone through hard times and sold out to the Russians 😔 Company culture changed from Western/Scandinavian to Eastern/Russian and not for the better.
So thinking of something new this summer. Not sure what direction to take yet... but before I go on the hellscape called LinkedIn I though I'd try here first.

had to scour #weather apps to find service providers that don’t rely on #NOAA. found a couple that use #Norway’s weather service.
so am putting a call out for #Brasil #Chile #Canada #Mexico #France #Spain #Germany #weather app developers: if you use your countries’ weather services, i beg you to add them to @fdroidorg
and to those governments: PLEASE OPEN YOUR APIs & DON’T GEOBLOCK USERS
our lives depend on free-open access to weather reports in a world with a NOAA destroyed by #MAGA #Trump

The 20th-century reforestation efforts in Spain and France were driven by economic needs (timber, pulp) and soil stabilization, leading to the widespread planting of specific fast-growing species that created highly flammable monocultures.
The Eucalyptus globulus (Blue Gum) was heavily planted in Spain, particularly in Galicia (northwest), starting in the late 19th century but exploding in the 20th century under the Franco regime to supply the pulp and paper industry (e.g., the state company ENCE).
These trees contain highly flammable oils and shed bark that acts as tinder. In Galicia, which holds over 60% of Spain's eucalypt plantations, wildfires are significantly more frequent and intense. The species also consumes vast amounts of water, drying out the surrounding soil.
