There is an “anti-musk” movement in the US. And the concessionaires, cars and load stations of Tesla are paying it with fire

by

It all started with some stickers. He continued with demonstrations. And ended with attacks on cars, dealers and load stations. The political positioning of Elon Musk has raised the anger of people who are clear that their way of protesting against one of the most controversial voices of the United States government is to directly attack its most recognized brand. And the owners of their cars. A first warning. “I bought this car before Elon went crazy.” That was the message that the owners of some Tesla began to send in November 2024. At that time, the United States elections had already occurred and Elon Musk was outlined as one of the singing voices of the new government of the country. Elon Musk vs Jeff Bezos: The Galaxies War However, the figure of the owner of Tesla was going to fit in the new administration of Donald Trump. Had promised that I would lead Dogethe Government Efficiency Department dedicated to cleaning all expenses (supposedly) superfluous within the administration. But, in addition, during his electoral campaign he already defended that They will withdraw the aid to the purchase of electric cars and all support will be dismantled to jump to this type of technology. A measure that, in the short term, should benefit Tesla given Leadership in the market. “Extremely Hardcore”. They were the Words used by Elon Musk to define the future of his work at the head of Doge and the application of his measures in the state administration. But it could define, without a clipper, everything that has been experienced since Donald Trump took power in the White House. Let’s remember quickly: Concentrations. All these decisions have been heating the atmosphere in the streets. A week ago the movement Tesla Tekadown. The movement encouraged to get rid of Tesla’s actions to make them go down and try reduce the richest man portfolio in the world. Little by little they started join repentant to the campaign like those of those stickers on the political turn of Elon Musk. The movement also encouraged to concentrate in front of the company’s dealers and even has A map where you can see future demonstrations against the company. In Europe only four are counted for the next few days but in the United States there are dozens of them. And to this we must add the viral campaign in the United Kingdom where Elon Musk was compared with Hitler and pointed to Tesla as the company that would take you from “0 to 1939 in three seconds”. Click on the photo to go to the original tweet Of less to more. But of concentrations and messages in concessionaires (and even In the company factory in Berlin) It has gone to more violent actions. Messages of “Kill Elon” in a concessionaire who was broken all the crystals. The superior image corresponds to an Oregon dealership (United States) but also Cases have been given in Europe. In France, for example, an anarchist group has claimed the Fire of a dealership which has ended with several partially calcined cars. In California, a few weeks ago, a group of students published their notice: “The Tesla hunting season opens”. A few days later, in Florida, a good number of vehicles waiting to be delivered They vandalized. And if that were not enough, Seven Load Stations In the United States they have been burned as a boycott measure against the company.

To avoid being victims of possible attacks, the owners of some Tesla have chosen to “disguise” their cars from other brands. Thus, it is possible to see Tesla Model 3 converted to Audi, Mazda U Honda cars. And instead of damaging cars, there are those who have opted for more creative solutions: project images in the Tesla Cybertruck found on the street. Taking advantage of the night, they use the rear of the electric SUV to launch messages that remember the number of vehicle reviews or the political drift of Elon Musk. Click on the image to go to the original tweet Polarized. All this has caused the community to divide even more among those who support Elon Musk, who are shown in favor of this type of protests and who simply, They try to separate the artist from the work. Other acquaintances influencers, Like Jerry Rig Eventhing (9.2 million followers on YouTube), they have assured that undoing all Tesla They have on their property. Chopped. At the moment, all this does not help improve the image of the company that has been facing a very hard correction in their actions. A fall that only time will say if it is the bad sales resultsadded to A 2024 that did not finish please to investors, and how much is related to Elon Musk’s political support. The drop in sales has a lot to do with the update of the Tesla Model andits great superventas, which is very likely that the plans to buy potential customers have delayed. However, the figures In China they are being bad And in Germany, the first electric car market in Europe, are being poor, with A 76% drop.

In 1996, Bill Gates saw Microsoft’s dominance in a revolutionary technology

by

The recent history of technology has left countless samples that, being a reference in any sector is a double -edged sword. On the one hand, it allows you to act from a position of domination of the market, but on the other it makes you Diana of all your competition. In 1996, Bill Gates, one of the most men influential and rich in the worldhe had a great concern about him advance of a new technology that took the dream: Java, a tool that, as Gates himself confessed in an email, threatened Microsoft’s dominance In the market. Bill Gates’s great fear was not Apple According to a conversation revealed by The X accountInternal Tech Emails, in September 1996, Gates admitted Nathan Myhrvold, then Microsoft technology director and Coinventor of more 800 patentswhich was “literally losing the dream” due to the impressive ability of Java. In his mail, Gates was worried about not finding a Strategy to protect Microsoft of The huge possibilities that offered this new technology. “It seems that people could make people make competitive operating systems,” wrote the millionaire. To deal with this threat, Myhrvold wanted to take some seriousness to the matter, and proposed A strategy based on “adopt and extend”. A winning plan, although controversial This tactic consisted of two main parts: first, Microsoft would announce its support for standardization and collaborate with other organizations to develop that technology among all. Then, in the “extend” phase, Microsoft would implement the Java standard, but would add exclusive and differentiated features For Microsoft users. This would create one competitive advantage for your company and would motivate users of other brands that only offered the “basic standard”, to change the products of the Gates company. Myhrvold’s strategy turned out to be very effective for Microsoft since it managed to consolidate the Windows leadership in the market, with functions that no other operating system offered. However, it was also considered abusive. The United States Department of Justice came to “adopt, extend and extinguish” In one of your opinionsdue to the negative impact on the competition that this strategy proposed by Myhrvold had. There is always a stalking risk That a millionaire like Gates ensure that a new risk makes him “lose sleep” is no exception. Much less in the technological field, where innovation Makes the highest towers fall and makes David more insignificant into an untouchable Goliath overnight. Ask Nokia Oa Deepseek. In fact, the fear that an enemy arises from nothing and ruin all work What your company has done is a recurring fear in the CEO of large companies called “CEO paranoia“ Jensen Huang, CEO of one of the world’s greatest technology, claims to be obsessed with making a mistake in your management and that your company is ruined. “I think that when you built a company from scratch, you have experienced real adversity and have been about to close several times, that feeling remains with you,” said Huang in a Interview at the New York Times Dealbook Summit. For its part, Peter Beck, founder and executive director of the aerospace company Rocket Labhe was also very concerned about the decisions he made at the forefront of a company that participates in the current space race. “I can’t imagine getting home and sleeping deeply every night; that is simply tangible,” assured Beck a CNBC. Jeff Bezos, after raising two empires from nowhere in two different sectors, also confessed that one of its main fears They were the garagesreferring precisely to Two students from a garage They could develop the next great technological idea that unbank their companies in the current domain position.

Who is Sebas Muriel, Chema Alonso’s replacement as Cdo in Telefónica

by

He CHANGE CHANGE IN THE DIRECTOR OF TELECE He also arrives at his digital appendix and marks the end of one era and the beginning of another. Sebas Muriel, veteran of telecommunications with a classical executive profile, returns to the operator to occupy the position of Chief Digital Officer after Chema Alonso’s departurethat will take with him his disruptive style and hacker. This movement is part of a low higher restructuring Marc Murtra’s new leadership as executive president. While Alonso represented the commitment to the disruptive with his famous blue hat and his scooter, Muriel embodies a somewhat more traditional approach. He is a telecommunications engineer with MBA of the IESE, a combination that is almost canonical in the Spanish business ecosystem. Muriel’s professional history includes strategic positions in technology companies. He started at HP and Lucent Technologies. Then he made the leap to PWC as Senior Manager in 2001. In 2006 he was appointed General Director of Red.es (the public entity for digital development). There he led the strategic reposition of the entity. In 2011 he joined Tuenti as vice president of Corporate Affairs. This stage coincided with the integration of the network into the telephone ecosystem after Your purchase for 70 million euros before pivoting virtual operator. In 2015 it became its CEO. After accessing the position he was interviewed by Xataka mobile. That allowed him to pass Telefónica as a global director of Customer Experience Before leaving Groupm three years ago. There he has led An important restructuring of the advertising groupgetting new accounts that reported more than 60 million euros in campaigns between 2022 and 2023. Among the achievements that Telefónica stands out Muriel is his “extensive experience in business management and digital transformation” and “his ability to promote transformation programs.” The contrast with Alonso is remarkable: Where the outgoing CDO looked as a technical communicator and digital evangelizing, Muriel stands out for his managing profile and orientation to commercial results. This change is a symptom that Murtra Telefónica, after years betting on aspirational disruption and conversations about transformation, now turns towards a more pragmatic approach. This transition symbolizes a frequent pattern in large companies: after the period of technological evangelization represented by profiles such as Alonso, The systematization and consolidation phase arrives embodied in executives such as Muriel. The challenge will now be to convert the visionary ideas of the previous stage into specific commercial results, preventing digital initiatives from being in breeding promises.

say goodbye to employees if they do not marry and have children

by

October 2024. The New York Times Uncapa One of the latest initiatives sponsored by the China Government to lift its battered birth and that takes off once and for all: literally go door by door In search of women to intervene in crucial decisions about motherhood. Several months have passed since then and, far from lowering the tension, the proposals have climbed several levels. Unprecedented business policy. It also counted the Times this week. In an extreme attempt to reverse the fall in marriage and birth rates, the chemical company Shandong Shuntian Chemical Group issued a notice aimed at its single employees. The proposal: demand marrying and forming a family before September 30 or face the termination of your employment contract. That mandate, that quickly It went viral on social networkswas presented as a call to loyalty and social responsibility, aligning with government efforts to promote a more “friendly with fertility” in China. It is not the first time. The truth is that the chemical company was not the first to intervene in the personal life of its employees. Recently, the Pangdonglai supermarket chain prohibited its workers demand “wedding prices” (skills that men pay to the family of the future wife), arguing that They make marriage more expensive and discouraged the formation of families. In addition, he limited the number of guests at the weddings of his employees to five tables. Despite criticism in networks, The People’s Dailyofficial newspaper of the Communist Party, defended the measure as a step towards a Most accessible and civilized marriage. Be that as it may, before the negative reaction, Shandong Shuntian He withdrew the order that went viral and was forced to undergo a “rectification” by the local government, although the controversy highlighted the degree of interference that some private companies seem to be assuming in the demographic crisis. The background of the marriage crisis (and demographic). It We counted this week. The nation is so desperate to solve the birth rate that they are even considering reduce legal age To marry. In the background, a drastic decrease in their marriage and birth rates. In 2023, Only 6.1 million couples They married, 20% less than the previous year and the lowest figure since the Government began registering data in 1986. In addition, the population has decreased for three consecutive yearswhich has generated a growing concern about the impact on the economy and future work of the country. Other extreme strategies. As We count in October last year, the government had implemented various strategies to encourage birth, from subsidies to Elimination of the Single Son Policy. Some of the most striking actions included those Home visits to women to ask them about their pregnancy plans, but also all kinds of Official propaganda ensuring that pregnancy “makes the most intelligent women”, or even called to create a social environment conducive to fertility, including incentives in the workplace. However, these measures have been received with skepticismespecially Among the young Chinesewho cite economic reasons, lack of job stability and a desire for personal autonomy as the main reasons to avoid marriage and fatherhood. Companies as pressure tools. Had the New York Times Although the Chinese government has not issued direct orders as it did in the past with the policy of the only child, it has encouraged an indirect social pressure model. According to feminist activist Lu Pin, instead of imposing drastic measures, the Communist Party would be delegating the Pressure in private companiesusing social norms to influence citizens’ behavior. The intervention of companies such as Shandong Shuntian and Pangdonglai suggests that many companies consider acceptable to implement Rules aligned with the government agenda. Although officially the government does not force them to marry or have children, it allows and in some cases publicly supports business actions that foster these practices. Social control. In fact, an example of this approach was A filtered draft of the Quanzhou Health Commission, which proposed that government employees “take the initiative in the implementation of the policy of the three children.” Although the document did not specify how they should do it, the similarities with the Single Son Policy They have generated concern about possible more direct state pressure in the future. In short, the measures seem to reflect a change in the Government’s demographic control strategy, which has gone from imposing birth restrictions to the opposite: actively foster marriage and reproduction. In question, of course, the erosion of individual rights and the autonomy of the workers themselves. Image | Josh Vaughn In Xataka | China only allows you to get married from the age of 20.

Hunting has been printed in the National ID of Spain for centuries. Now you have a problem: there is no relief

by

Hunting ages in Spain. A lot. Fast. And in a way that invites you to think that in a matter of decades the collective, which until not so long ago He presumed That only federated soccer and basketball surpassed him in the number of federated, he will see his even smaller weight. This is reflected at least A study Posted in People and Nature in which it is analyzed how the practice of hunting in the Iberian Peninsula has evolved throughout the last half century and what are the forecasts for the next decades. The scenario they paint is not precisely flattering and leaves several questions, such as their impact on the mountains. Hunting in Spain, under examination. That is what a group of researchers has done, among which there are several members of the Pyrenean Institute of Ecology (IPE-CSIC), In a broad article Posted in the magazine People and Nature. The title already leaves little margin for interpretations: “The demographic collapse of hunting in the Iberian Peninsula”. For analysis, experts have analyzed six Spanish regions (Navarra, Madrid, Aragon, Castilla-La Mancha, Murcia and Andalucía) and Portugal, covering a population of hunters that in 2020 reached 583,575. Work graph published by Mario Gaspar and the rest of the authors in “People and Nature”. A percentage: 45%. One of the first conclusions reached by researchers is that the population of hunters has been reduced notably during the last half century. And if the trend is maintained, it will continue to do so in the coming years. The study It shows that in the last and a half decade the number of hunters fell in the area analyzed by 26%, a percentage that rises to 45% if we expand the focus to 50 years. In practice that translates into moving from about 1.06 million in 1970 to just under 800,000 in 2005 and lowering the 600,000 in 2020. And the researchers already warn that the future does not paint better. “By 2050, if the average trends observed during the last five decades are followed, hunters throughout the study area are expected to decrease by 70%,” They point The authors of the study. As a reference, they remember that in 2007 Spain added 980,000 hunters, the second largest registration in Europe, only surpassed by France. Its calculations point out that in 2050 in the area studied, which does not cover the entire country but much of the territory will remain 176,815. The key: the generational relief. One of the great challenges with which hunting is the lack of wise new. The aging of the population, the rural exodus and social and cultural changes have taken its toll to the collective and that is clearly reflected in Your figures. Researchers talk about the fact that, at least in the regions they have analyzed, “recruitment” has decreased more than 89% in just 50 years. From 44,000 new hunters between 1970 and 1979, it went to less than 5,000 in the 2010 to 2020. And the descents were even greater in regions with a strong tradition, such as Castilla-La Mancha or Portugal, both with falls that exceed 90%. The result is that the participation of young people in hunting has dropped to “Historical minimum”further complicating the future of the activity. The largest proportion of young hunters is found in the smallest municipalities, of less than 100 inhabitants, where it reaches 14%. In the localities with more than 10,000 neighbors that incidence collapses below 1%. Work graph published by Mario Gaspar and the rest of the authors in “People and Nature”. ​ One more aged group. The result is obvious. It is increasingly easy to meet in Spain with major hunters, which have passed 60 years. And more difficult to see twenty -year -old or thirties by the mountain with the shotgun hanging on the shoulder. If the trend does not vary over the next few years the researchers already They warn that in the middle of this century the proportion of hunters who have already blown the 60 candles will go from 40 to 61%, thus becoming a comfortable majority. “The hunting population studied, with about 600,000 hunters, is strongly aged, being the most abundant cohort that between 61 and 70 years, and its prevalence is eight times higher in smaller populations than in large cities,” They reflect The authors of the study. The figures are again revealing: the strip of hunters from 61 to 70 years was the most abundant, with 23%, despite the fact that experts detected that the abandonment of hunting is accelerated from 65 years. The age cohort below 20 years is testimonial, with only 0.92%. Question of changes. Change hunting, but also changes society and the Spanish population itself. In fact your Paulatino Aging It coincides with that of the whole of society and the abandonment of the rural one, another key that seems to affect the practice of hunting. Researchers have proven that the average participation rate is much higher in small municipalities than in the large ones: in the villages of less than 100 neighbors it reaches 8%, compared to 1% in those of more than 100,000 inhabitants. With all the population weight of the latter, he explains that most hunters reside in large locations, especially those between 10,000 and 100,000 censored. The global photo can be even worse for the collective, since, like They recognize The authors themselves, the investigation does not cover the whole of the Spanish territory. “The real decrease rates throughout the Iberian Peninsula are probably higher, since the regions not included in our study, located mainly in the northwest of Spain, are the most aging and where the hunting is likely to have decreased more,” they assume. A fact, several questions. The study of People and Nature It is interesting because it reflects, with concrete figures and percentages, the “demographic collapse” that hunting in the peninsula is suffering. However, those same data leave some important questions, one of them outlined In the report itself: … Read more

Zuckerberg dismissed 5% of the goal template “for low performance”. His former employees say there is another reason

by

In the same way as It is not the same to resign That they fire you (although the result is that you are left without employment), it is not the same as they fire you For a staff cut that for “low performance”. Goal, ha 5% of its workforcearguing that they were low performance employees. However, this public justification has enraged the 3,600 meta -employed since they stigmatizes them as bad workers when they apply for new jobs. The former employees say that their work performance has only been an excuse, but not the real reason for their dismissal. A “cruel” trick to cut staff. “I have decided to raise the level of performance management and fire low performance employees more quickly,” wrote Mark Zuckerberg in the internal memorandum sent to its employees in January. Such and as he published Business InsiderThis was raising the scale of what the company considered “low performance” to put employees in the pillory who, until that moment, considered that they had a good performance. Sally Maitlis, a professor of organizational behavior and leadership at Saïd Business School, assured to Fortune That the “low performance” label could be a ballast for the professional career of the former employees dismissed, doubly penalizing them with the loss of their employment and closing the door to find a new one. “It is a terrible way of being labeled and is clearly not useful for anyone in the labor market,” Maitlis said. They have shouted the four winds. Before such injustice for them, employees have not hesitated to raise their voice from social networks to claim their professionalism and denounce the bad faith that, according to them, has used a goal in their dismissal. “Today they have fired me, but not for being a low performance employee. Let’s be clear: that label is misleading and, for many of us, it is totally wrong,” ” published on his LinkedIn account Steven S, former product of Instagram product. Kaila Curry, who worked as a content manager, said in her LinkedIn profile that: “I often asked for comments and they always told me that I was doing a good job. They never assigned a PIP (performance improvement plan), they never gave me correction indications and never guided me or gave me clear expectations. I just struggled … I am not a person of low performance.” A mortgaged future. The main complaint of the employees focuses on the argument that has publicly wielded a goal to justify the dismissal of the 3,600 employees since, as they argue, it harms their options for free to get a new job. “The most difficult thing is that goal says publicly that they are cutting low yields, so it feels as if we had the scarlet letter on our backs. People need to know that we do not have low performance,” declared one of the employees dismissed to Business Insider. “It is possible that these people are superstar in other places. Therefore, it seems to me that it is an additional punishment because they are people who probably have a very high market value,” He pointed out to Fortune Dan Cable, Professor of Organizational Behavior at the London Business School. Employers are answering. One of the most recurring advice when running for a new job is not criticizing the company that has just fired you. However, against any forecast, the strategy of the finishing targets has had a positive impact. Many recruiters and companies have shown interest in the profiles of the target employees. “Good employers look for people who are good communicators, capable of defending themselves, just as they would in their position within the organization,” He stood out to Business Insider Ashley Herd, Recruitment Expert from LinkedIn and founder of a manager recruitment company. “Those who speak of course can be found, being realistic, with a smaller group of possible employers, but it will be a group that really aligns with their values ​​and supports professional success and long -term happiness,” said the expert. Now stigma is target. Mark Zuckerberg said the layoffs were not due to economic difficulties, but to a restructuring to focus on the IA development And, in fact, vacancies had opened to incorporate into this new profile. Since the hiring process is a relationship of two, the complaints expressed in social networks by their ex -employed can complicate that process. User forums as Reddit or Teamblind have filled the new candidates about the new goal policy with warnings. “It seems that it was more money than performance. Be careful to join this company. Zuck does not care about its employees. Only the company,” wrote A meta -employed. “Meta is now the most cruel technological company that exists,” added another former partner. Other great technological companies Like Microsoft or Amazon have already announced that they will take more into account the performance of their employees when signing their layoffs.

If Nvidia lived only from PC GPUs, she would be about to die of success. And US tariffs don’t help

by

During the last weeks take a family graphics card GeForce RTX 50 Nvidia without falling into the hands of speculators is a real odyssey. At the time I am writing this article the only solution of this family that is easy to find at a price close to the recommended By nvidia is the GeForce RTX 5070. As is understandable, this situation generates frustration among the players who have decided to get one of these graphics cards, as you have noticed in the comments of our articles. To understand what is happening, we are interested in taking a look at “the photograph” of the PC graphics card market. According to the consultant Jon Pedie Research During the last 2024 quarter, more than 78 million GPUs were distributed for PC, which represents a 6.2% growth compared to the third quarter of last year. Nvidia leads this market with a quota of 65%, while Intel and AMD are formed with 16% and 18% respectively. This is our starting point. Difficult times arrive for the PC graphics card market This statement of Jon Pediethe head of the consultant who I have mentioned a few lines above, describes very precisely what the current situation is: “Nvidia, with the highest market share, had difficulty satisfying the demand. And as a result of its size and influence, it prevented the GPU market Tariffs will include profits for the majority, even for everyone, for 2025 “. TSMC is responsible for producing these chips for Jensen Huang’s company Nvidia has not officially revealed how many GPUs belonging to the GeForce RTX 50 family has delivered to graphics card assemblies, but it is evident that not necessary to meet demand. The Taiwanese manufacturer of semiconductors TSMC is responsible to produce these chips for the company of Jensen Huang, but it is important that we do not overlook that it not only manufactures the GPUs for Nvidia games; also produces its chips for artificial intelligence (AI). And the production capacity of TSMC is limited. From one thing we can be sure: in the current circumstances the GPU market for AI is a priority for Nvidia. After all, it is Its greatest source of income. The Jon Peddie Research report expects that from 2024 to 2028 the general market of the GPUs will be contracted annually, and in 2030 only 15% of the computers will have a dedicated graphics card. In these circumstances it seems reasonable to assume that Nvidia and AMD will pay more and more attention to their chips for AI, and perhaps a little less to their GPU for games. Anyway, there is another fact in Jon Peddie’s statement that is worth not overlooking: The tariffs which is deploying the administration led by Donald Trump. At the moment TSMC produces Nvidia chips in Taiwan. Perhaps in the medium term diverts the manufacture of these integrated circuits to Your new US plantsbut for the moment neither Nvidia, nor AMD, nor any other client who buys TSMC his chips produced in Taiwan will be fought from the tariffs. And in these circumstances, as Peddie states, the profits of these companies will be affected. If prices do not raise their benefits will be reduced. And if they are presumably submitted less, so their earnings will also resent.

They are waters in conflict with Spain

by

Morocco has granted the Israeli company Newmed Energy a hydrocarbon exploitation license on an extension of 34,000 square kilometers in the Atlantic, off the coast of the Western Sahara. Why is a problem. Because the explorations conflict with the maritime sovereignty of the region. Claimed by Morocco, they are legally territorial waters of Spain, from the Spanish point of view. The Moroccan decision This complex relationship tensions even moreplay disputes about the Western Sahara and reinforces the strategic ties between Morocco and Israel, which have been narrowing in recent years, despite the geopolitical concerns derived from the Gaza War. The details. Israeli company Newmed Energy and Moroccan Adarco Energy have obtained an official rabat license To explore and exploit 17 maritime blocks in front of the Saharawi coasts, between the cities of Boujdour and Dajla. Newmed and Adarco possess, each, 37.5% of the permits, while the remaining 25% is from the Moroccan state company onhym. It is not the first Moroccan concession to Israeli companies. In 2021, Rabat granted licenses on another 109,900 km² to Ratio Petroleum and Navitas Petroleum. The conflict. The area granted is only 200 km from the Canary Islands, within an exclusive economic zone (ZEE) that Morocco established unilaterally in 2020, without international recognition. Both the Canary Islands and the Government of Spain have repeatedly stated that this delimitation lacks legal validity and overlaps with the Spanish Zee internationally recognized since 1981. The Israel factor. The concession is to reflect the approach between Morocco and Israel after Abraham’s agreements of 2020. and despite Gaza’s War. Through companies such as Newmed Energy, Israel seeks to position themselves as a key energy actor in the Mediterranean and North Africa. For Morocco, the alliance offers strategic, technological and diplomatic advantages, especially Before the Polisario Front (seeking the independence of the western Sahara) and Algeria. Now Spain will have to decide how it responds to these maritime and energy audacies.

In a corner of Andalusia the reservoirs are at 94% of their capacity. It seems excellent news, but it is not so much

by

Until a few months ago, drought was a problem that affected almost the entire country, even to the greatest northern areas that saw an important reduction in rainfall and even the introduction of temporary water savings measures. Now the situation has changed, although the threat is still in force in some areas of the country, especially along the Mediterranean coast. Odiel, red and stones, the exception. However, if we look at one of the maps that show us the Situation of Basin Reservoirs Hydrographic, perhaps otherwise what caught our attention. Surrounded by the great hydrographic basins of Guadiana and Guadalquivir, the Odiel basin, red and stones seems to show us a humid anomaly in the south of the Peninsula. The swamps of the basin are, according to the Last data availableat 94.3% of its capacity. This makes it the second largest hydrographic basin, behind the Internal Basins of the Basque Country (95.2%) and ahead of basins such as Galicia coast (87.6%) and the Eastern Cantabrian (83.6%). A figure that contrasts in a striking way with the state of the reservoirs in the hydrographic basins of its surroundings: 48.4% in the Pantans of the Guadiana, 40.5% in those of the Guadalquivir, and 30.5% in Guadalete-Barbate. What happens in this little basin for? Statistical issue? The first thing we can consider is statistics. The Hydrographic Basin of Los Ríos Odiel, Tinto and Piedras is a small basin, both in extension and capacity: the swamps of this Huelva basin can store a maximum of 229 cubic hectometers (HM³). Surrounded by greater extension demarcations, such as those of the Guadiana and the Guadalquivir, the most similar basin in extension in the south would be that of the Guadalete-Barbate. However, the Cadiz basin has A capacity of 1,651 hm³. This fact could justify the anomaly due to pure statistics: less capacity would imply greater ease for filling and emptying, more variability and with it more likely that at some time of time extreme values ​​are achieved. The problem is that the reservoirs of this area have been maintained rather persistent as the most full of the south. Rainfall. One of the reasons why the Odiel, Tinto and Piedras Rivers Basin attracts attention is due to the general contrast with the southern basins of the Peninsula, which in turn is associated with the fact that the South receives less rainfall than the north. Although that is true if we compare the north third with the rest of the country, the truth is that the image It is more complexand Andalusia is a good example of this. In Andalusia it exists A marked difference in rainfall between The Eastern Zone and the rest of the Autonomous Community, especially in the West. The province of Huelva is usually among those that receive the most water, being the north of the province one of the regions that record the most rainfall. To that we must add that 2024 was A slightly more wet year than the average in almost the entire province of Huelva. The beginning of 2025 has exacerbated this trend, with almost the entire province receiving more than double water than average During the month of January. The “dead” reservoir. The reservoirs of the Odiel basin, red and stones receive a lot of water, yes, but also others in Western Andalusia. To explain the phenomenon of this basin, perhaps we also have to attend to emptying. And here we find another determining factor: the reservoirs of this basin do not empty the same ease. The reason is pollution. This basin has a peculiarity, that of reservoirs useless for the contamination of its waters. To illustrate it, the El Sancho reservoir, The “Dead Reservoir” of the Odiel Basin. The waters of this reservoir are extremely acidic, with a pH value close to 3.6, to which high concentrations of toxic metals must be added, as explained In an article for The conversation Manuel Olías and José Miguel Nieto, both experts from the University of Huelva. The reservoir is in a situation of Perennial filling at 82.76%contributing 48 hm³ of waters to the accounts of the reservoirs of a basin that add up to a capacity, remember, of 216 hm³. The problem Nor is it exclusive of the El Sancho reservoir. Complementary explanations. None of the three explanations (size, rainfall and pollution) explains in itself the state of the reservoirs in this basin, but as a whole they can explain the anomaly of this basin and the associated problem.
