  • LUGO, GALICIA, SPAIN – DECEMBER 11: Several people attend the protest called to fight against the invasion of wind energy in the Galician mountains, on 11 December, 2022 in Meira, Lugo, Galicia, Spain. Up to 20 concellos have been convened by the coordinator ‘Eolica, Asi non’ under the slogan ‘Na defensa das montañas. Eolica Asi Non. Temos alternativa’, and coincides with World Mountain Day. Its aim is to denounce the wind boom in the mountains of the community and the impact it has, as well as criticize that neither the Xunta nor the State Administration put a stop to the wave of wind projects in the pipeline, which puts at risk the survival of the rural environment as well as its ecological balance. The coordinator intends, with these mobilizations, to remind the public administrations that the mountain ecosystem is also home and livelihood of a good part of the Galician population, “often forgotten”.
