ORIGINS

We love Spain!

1) Spain Top Environmental facts

In 2005 Spain became the first country in Europe to require the installation of photovoltaic electricity generation in new buildings, and the second in the world (after Israel) to require the installation of solar hot water systems.

Spain hosted COP25 in Madrid, which drove to the universal agreement on climate and calls countries to act to protect ou planet. One of the main topics was the nuclear power, which is currently the dominant energy source across the Europe and is expected to be overtaken by renewable energy by 2027.

2) About Spanish people

Spanish love fiestas. Spain has many interesting celebrations each year, often based on centuries-old traditions. One of the most famous one is La Tomatina. An annual festival celebrated in the small town of Buñol, where thousands of people participate in the largest tomato fight in the world.

Spain has the second-highest number of bars per inhabitants. Spanish people simply love to spend their free time (siesta) with friends and family in local cafeterias and bars.

Nudity is not a taboo in Spain. Spanish culture is pretty open when it comes to sexuality, and toplessness is pretty much universally accepted on beaches in Spain.
