In the place with the highest number of wind turbines in all of Galicia, Muras (Lugo), 576 residents live, according to the 2025 INE (Spanish national statistics institute), with a record figure of 381 wind turbines. What would seem to be a source of income and energy does not, in reality, yield proportional benefits for the residents of this small municipality of 163 square kilometers compared to the profits of renewable energy companies. Years ago, the local council implemented a measure allowing municipality residents to receive a discount on their electricity bills.

The summer 2025 fires in Galicia were historic. They affected so many hectares that they ended up merging with one another, devastating flora, fauna, and entire villages, such as San Vicente de Leira (in the region of Valdeorras, Ourense). This was captured by the camera of our colleague Brais Lorenzo. His work earned the prestigious World Press Photo 2026 award.
