1. In your country, do you feel the worsening condition of global warming?
Indeed I do, I see every summer, how the temperatures are rising up and it is more accentuated here in Barcelona where we have a high humidity. It is practically impossible to not sweat during the day whether you have an extra pound or not.

2. What is your local community doing to minimize or prevent global warming?
I think we are going on the right direction and we should continue on this pathway. Most of the vehicles manufactured nowadays here in Barcelona and Spain are Hybrid cars which works with petrol and electricity.
The other recent regulation we have in Barcelona city is the obligation to have a sticker on the car, which defines how much contamines your car and if you are allowed to enter the city driving.

3. Do you think there is still hope when it comes to “repairing” the environment?
I think there is still hope, but we can not hesitate slowing down all the commitments defined to stop the climate change.

So good to have you on the PE blog! Thank you for writing your answers down.
