After the giant wolf, a huge bird of New Zealand wins points to be desixtinquida. And Peter Jackson has a lot to do

by

‘Jurassic Park‘It is a science fiction story until it ceases to be. Not so much because there are those who consider current technology can bring dinosaurs backbut because there is already a company that is returning to life species that were extinguished thousands of years ago. It is colossal and are accepting requests to relive your favorite extinct animal. Whenever you call yourself Peter Jackson and have 25 million dollars to donate them. “Hobby”Jackson does not need presentations at this point. After several minor films, he jumped to world fame with his adaptation of ‘The Lord of the Rings‘, which allowed him to fulfill another of his dreams: roll a King Kong movie. In the tape the love that the New Zealander director feels for animals from other times, but that passion transcends to the screen was felt. Interestingly, one of the director’s fun is to collect Moa bones, to the point of having one of the largest private collections in the world focused on the bones of that extinct animal. “The movies are my work, but the moa are my hobby,” commented Jackson. From left to right a kiwi, an ostrich and a moa. They were … big De -sextinging the moa. But … what is a moa? In a nutshell, it’s like a kiwi, but about three meters high, about 250 kilos and can not fly either. His closest living relatives would be the aforementioned kiwis, but also the casuaries and the most similar would be Emú. New Zealand natives, the MOA was not extinguished: we extinguish it. When the Maori arrived at the islands, they began to hunt them and, although sightings have been reported in the nineteenth century, there is no evidence of this and it is considered that the MOA was extinguished, at least 500 years ago. Jackson comments that “any Neozyre child feels fascination with Moa.” Colossal comes into play. The filmmaker has between 300 and 400 Moa bones, and it will be that private collection the one that drives The animal’s de -sexyction thanks to a company called Colossal. It is not the first time we talk about them, since it is a company dedicated to biotechnology that has become popular for their interest in Return animal to life like mammoth or the Tasmania tiger. Also to Dodo. What they do is Take extinct animal DNAsomething that can be done from bones such as those that Jackson possesses and, the more remains, the better, and combine it with samples of relatives who live today. That is the easy thing: the complicated thing comes when, once the genetic information of the two DNA is combined, they are “filtering variants” to edit the genes and get exactly the animal they want. Finally, a living animal is used to give birth to the “new” creature. And it is not cheap. Money. A lot. In a recent financing round, Colossal Biosciences reached a assessment of 10,200 million dollars. At the end of 2024, Jackson already He collaborated With 10 million dollars in Colossal Bioscience, but now it has donated another 15 million for the company to place the MOA in its list of ‘goals’. This implies that we will take time to see the result. Now, Colossal is not just castles in the air. In April of this year, the company advertisement His first success: they had achieved resurrect the giant wolf, the Aenocyon Dirus. Now there are three puppies called Romulo, Remo and Khaleesi that, with six months of age – they were born in January this year – they have reached a weight of about 36 kilos and a length of 120 cm. They are expected to reach 180 cm and 68 kilos each. Jackson on the left and Ben Lamm, one of the founders of Colossal, on the right. Both with moa bones Complex. We will see what happens to the moa, but there are those who think that what is best colossal is Sell the motorcycle. With the MOA we are at a very early stage of the welcoming, but as we read in Physthe process seems to be more complex than with the wolves. Beth Shapiro is the chief scientist of Colossal and has commented that, unlike what happens with mammals, bird embryos develop inside eggs, so the process of transferring an embryo to a substitute mother will be very different from in vitro fertilization in mammals. Nic Rawlence is a paleontologist who works at the University of Otago and has commented that reviving New Zealand birds “is not scientifically possible with current technology.” The problem is that there is no good moa genome and its closest relatives are the Tinamúesof those who separated 60 million years ago. Criticism Apart from that, which is an important challenge, there is another issue: if an extinct animal is revived, is the patent of nature or the responsible company? Ben Lamm, the director of Colossal, has already explained that They do not want to monetize those animals directly, but sell its technology. But of course, he does not close the door to patent what they wish. And, although Alex, 10 would love to see a tyrannosaur in the streets of San Diego, the current Alex knows that no company is going to do it for love of art and that, probably, it does not matter that the habitat of that animal does not look like it or the least to the one he had at the time of his disappearance. Who is excited It’s Jackson. “Returning the moa to life would be so exciting, if not more, than any movie you could do.” Images | Colossal, Kkpcw, Gage Skidmore In Xataka | We just closed a primate. If someone believes that brings us closer to the cloning of humans, it is wrong

The US has taught the tariff rope with Brazil again. Embraer has a lot to lose, and its customers too

by

If you live in Europe, fly in a Embraer is not the most common. But the truth is that these Brazilian planes are more present than they seem. In airports such as London City, Where only a few models can operate, these jets dominate the track. Even in Spain his footprint was remarkable: Air Europa had several E195 in its regional fleet until the beginning of 2023. Embraer is not a minor actor. It is one of the world’s largest manufacturer in the world and its e-hes-especially the E175– They hold a good part of regional traffic in the US. Airlines such as American, Skywest and other regional United Express operators have clearly opted for them. With Boeing in low hoursEmbraer is emerging as an emerging candidate for the select group of the great manufacturers. A tariff triggers uncertainty President Donald Trump has threatened to apply A 50 % tariff To Brazilian products as of August 1, an unprecedented offensive in relations between the two countries. In parallel, Brazil already mentions a mirror answercovered by a recent reciprocity law. Although there is still no confirmation about which sectors they would be exempt. With a large part of Embraer’s orders aimed at the US market – where almost 95 % of firm orders from E175 come from airlines such as American, Skywest and other United Express operators -, the new measure threatens to significantly increase their products significantly. Not only will the final prices of the jets be affected, but the cost of the Imported components from the United Statesessential for manufacturing, it could also be affected if Brazil decides to apply, in retaliation, an equivalent rate. Among those components are enginesCF34 manufactured by General Electricthe airplane system Honeywell Primus Epicas well as landing trains and actuators supplied, mostly, by Collins Aerospace (USA) and Liebherr (Europe). An essential part of each aircraft that, if more expensive, would also impact the production costs of the aircraft destined for other markets. This dual effect could have broad spectrum consequences. On the one hand, airlines could be forced to Reconsider your purchase strategies If the price jump translates into higher operational costs. On the other, if the manufacturing cost is increased, Embraer’s global competitiveness would be compromised, even in regions where its position is solid. As Flightglobal collectsEmbraer has indicated that he is evaluating the impact of this measure on its operations and has been active in the dialogue with the authorities to try to restore the exemption of the import tax that has historically favored the Brazilian aeronautical industry. However, queen uncertainty. This tariff is part of a Trump communications series to leaders of more than twenty countries, with warnings that rates can modify “according to the relationship.” The lack of regulatory clarity leaves manufacturers such as Embraer – and suppliers, airlines and passengers— In a difficult situation to anticipate.

Private jets and premium travelers contaminate a lot, so Spain already plans what to do with them: charge them much more

by

If you travel in Premium mode, it will have to pay (even more) premium prices. That is the idea that several countries shuffle, including Spain, which have discussed a unique possibility: to impose special rates both to private aircraft and jets and passengers traveling in the premium classes. New taxation for the air sector. As indicated In Reutersthe debate has occurred during the UN conference On development financing held these days in Seville. There has been where Spain and other countries have discussed the impact of the air sector on the environment and how to try to mitigate the problem. And the solution they have found is clear: special rates for them. A disparate group. Countries that are inclined to this option form a singular group. They are Spain, France, Kenya, Benín, Sierra Leone, Somaia, Barbados, and Antigua and Barbuda. All of them advocate the introduction of “a specific rate to executive class bills and private airplanes.” Pedro Sánchez, president of Spain, also added that “the specific rate for this type of flights” is intended to address pollution and climate change. Private jets and premium passengers, under examination. The proposal is based on the experience collected by the road map of the COP28 (Conference of the Parties of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change) and the COP29. The objective for COP30 is “a better contribution from the aviation sector to fair transitions and resilience, with special attention to premium passengers.” Premium travelers coalition. The French executive has published A statement explained that today the aviation sector contributes to 2.5% of CO2 emissions, and remains one of the industries that grow the most in this type of emissions. In the G20 the average price of the kerosene in 2021 was 9 euros/ton, compared to the 79 euros of the diesel and 68 euros of gasoline. Private jets, horror. But the problem is aggravated for private jets and “premium travelers”: 1% of luxury aircraft passengers pollute more than 50% of commercial aviation. Emissions generated by private jets have increased significantly: 46% From 2019 to 2023. What does the European Commission say. According to that statement, the European Commission “will continue to provide technical support to this initiative.” France has been fighting this problem for some time, and that three years ago I cricked that “two -speed effort“. Its rulers criticized that while they were required to neighboring countries that were Press the energy belta wealthy minority I took private jets for routes that could be covered with less comfortable alternatives, but also less burdensome and pollutants. Taxes to fight climate change. The Global Solidarity Levies Task Force (GSLT) is an association led by France that also supports this initiative that is part of the so -called Pact for Prosperity, People and the Planet (4p). In the statement The GSLT includes statements by Emmanuel Macron and Pedro Sánchez. For this body this type of tax can raise “vital taxes for the weather.” Tax. From Greenpeace Remember That “flying is the most elite and polluting way to travel, so this is an important step to ensure that the great consumers of this little taxed sector pay the part that corresponds to them.” It would thus be taxed by those industries that most contaminate, and private flights are of course a problem in that area. Other countries could join. The coalition indicated that it should work to “improve the mobilization of internal income of developing countries.” Member countries will work so that other countries join this initiative so that “air bills are applied, including high -end, and to tax private planes based on best practices, at the same time guaranteeing ascending harmonization and greater progressivity in countries that already have such levies.” In Xataka | Your own private jet for 111 euros: the company that has devised the “blablacar” of luxury flights

YouTube risked a lot trying to be more like Tiktok. 200,000 million visualizations have proved him right

by

The future of the video is brief. You just have to look at the disproportionate growth of short video platforms such as The Almighty Tiktokwith 1.6 billion users on a global scale and a sustained growth that will lead to 113.2 million in the US in 2023 to 121.1 in 2027. So it has nothing strange that the rest of video apps go behind, behind, exactly the same with Netflix and its competitors in streaming. Many of Tiktok’s rivals are going well: YouTube, for example, not to grow thanks to its open tiktokization. Shorts better. YouTube Shortsthe section of short videos of the platform (no more than 60 seconds – then extended to three minutes – and with vertical format) has reached a new maximum when averaging 200,000 million daily viewsas announced by the CEO of YouTube, Neal Mohan, during his speech at Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity 2025. It represents a growth of no less than 186% compared to the previous year: in March 2024 the platform spoke of 70,000 million daily visualizations from the launch of Shorts in 2021. Now, with Ia. In this growth context, Mohan made another announcement that can make an important difference between Tiktok and YouTube: the arrival of I see 3 To YouTube Shorts this summer. The Google video generation model will allow users to create funds and clips, something that already did the previous version, Dream Screen, but I see 3 exceeds it in many aspects, from the technical quality to the audio implementation also generated by AI. The usual youtube is eaten. The rise of YouTube Shorts has been generating a debate about the possible “cannibalization” of the traditional long YouTube content. As in Tiktok, Shorts favors content discovery and rapid consumptionwhich has captured the attention of younger audiences and with mobile devices as the main platform. The expansion of the maximum short duration of 3 minutes in 2025 reduced the gap between both formats and has allowed content creators to develop more complex ideas, tending a bridge between the traditional YouTube and shorts and between Shorts and Tiktok, a platform that has been experiencing with the Creation of videos of up to 30 minutes. He lacks a boil. Although growth is unstoppable, the truth is that Tiktok has an unmatched capacity to discover new videos to the user. All thanks to a much more refined algorithm, as anyone who spends some time on both platforms and demands not an avalanche of videos for anyone, but content thought a little more specifically for him. At the moment the trends, musical discoveries or memes continue to be born in Tiktok, and shorts are following the wake, still without algorithm. There are multiple reasons for it to be like this: The Tiktok algorithm Analyze thousands of user behavior signals (likes, comments, visualization time, repetitions, all to customize the content that appears in you). The possibility that any creator, however unknown, is viralize is what favors experimentation and creativity. In that same way, applied to music, Tiktok has revolutionized how songs are discovered and popularized: The platform is now the main way for new themes and artists to be known, thanks to how the platform reuses music, favoring the creation of Challengesmemes or choreographies. There is a game. YouTube, however, has some advantages over Tiktok, all structural and business. On the one hand is the eternal fear that Tiktok is prohibited In territories such as the United States, which would allow Shorts (and Instagram) to occupy that space. Besides, Monetization is much more worked On YouTube, where money reaches the creators more robust and predictable. It is a negligible detail, and has made Influencers and Streamers They end up returning to the platform after passing through others, thanks to the advantages offered by YouTube (and despite the inevitable ups and downs).

The light of the light has risen a lot and the electric ones blame it for the blackout. Facua has something to say about it

by

May 2025 promised to be the cheapest month thanks to the renewable generation in spring. However, consumers They have ended up paying more In the light of the light for the blackout of April 28, since they have had to activate emergency mechanisms or reinforcement systems. Now it seems that that should not have been so high. Short. Facua-Consumnadores in Action has warned the electricity marketers of the free market, In a press releasethat they cannot raise their rates unilaterally for the blackout of April 28 if that change is not provided for in the contract. A specific case. The association has loaded directly against Energía, a commercialization of the Repsol Group that has notified a 6% surcharge (about 73 euros per year), alleging an “increase in technical costs of the system” for the electricity network reinforcement system. However, like He recalled Facuaadjustment services are not part of the regulated costs (such as tolls and charges) and, therefore, do not justify a rise in the price agreed in free market contracts. The law is clear. According to the Civil Code, contracts must be fulfilled as agreed and cannot be modified according to the will of a single part (Arts. 1256 and 1258). Exceptions would only be accepted if the contract explicitly includes a clause that allows the marketer to apply these increases by extraordinary situations such as the lived. From the other part. The employer who brings together Iberdrola, Endesa and EDP, AELEC, is pressing to distribute or contain the overrages derived from the blackout. Its proposal is to transfer these extraordinary expenses – given to operate the system in “reinforced mode” to avoid new blackouts – to other concepts of the invoice, such as regulated charges, where costs by renewable or extrapeninsular are also included, according to Finch access has had access. There are more. The employer has calculated that the reinforced security strategy has meant an extra cost of 200 million euros in just one month and requires that there be an extraordinary regulatory response, so that neither consumers nor marketers assume that impact alone. As has detailed Fifodies, are in search of a “transient and exceptional” measure that relies on operation procedures 8.2 and 14.4, already provided for in the current regulatory framework. So is it valid? Legally, the key point is the type of contract that each consumer has. In free market contracts, prices are agreed for a year and cannot be modified unless the contract expressly allows. If there is no clear and specific enabling clause, the climb would be illegal, and it could be considered an abusive clause, even if there is a notice. From Facua they support this thesis in the Civil Code and in Article 65 of Royal Legislative Decree 1/2007 on consumer defense, which establishes that contracts must be interpreted in favor of the user and according to the objective good faith. That is, although the company affirms that the surcharge is justified, if you did not sign it and is not in transparent conditions, it cannot impose it. Any forecast? Today, neither Red Eléctrica nor the Ministry for Ecological Transition have clarified how much this reinforced security operation will last, nor how its costs will be distributed. From AELEC and other associations, an intervention of the regulator or the Ministry to temporarily redesign the cost distribution is expected. The objective: avoid an irreversible impact on the electrical marketing market and contain the price escalation.

Ryanair continues to sell flights at bus price and still earns a lot of money. Your business starts after check-in

by

An any of April. Madrid-Milán for 15 euros. The passenger clicks “accept” without thinking. At five clicks – 10 kilos pole, seat selection, priority boarding -, The amount already exceeds 60. Uugh. Ryanair is enough that arithmetic as simple as relentless to show off record benefits while their rivals scratch cents or directly lose money. Where is the magic? Why does its cost structure seem unbeatable? Accounts against intuition Ryanair’s last fiscal year closed with a benefit of almost 2,000 million and a solid growth over 2023: 1,920 million euros of net profit. Year -on -year growth of 34%. 13,440 million euros in income. 183.7 million transported passengers. Average occupation of 94% in its airplanes. All according to Your annual report of 2024. By 2025 it plans to go further, and it is already on the way to exceed 200 million travelers. In a sector where even Lufthansa (4%) or Air France-KLM (2%) barely reach margins of a digit, Ryanair moves comfortably in the environment of 14-15%net profitability, according to Capa analysis. Let’s see why. It does not give benefits to fly, but for everything else Ryanair has been refining a mantra for years: disaggregate the trip to the last screw and collect for everything that happens before, during and after the seat of the plane. There are several concepts there, but first of all, one stands out: that of the Auxiliary incomewhich reached 4.3 billion euros in 2024, one third of the billing, and 23.4 euros per passenger, according to their results report. What are they? Luggage. From the cabin suitcase to billing. From 12 or 13 euros to 75 euros according to the season. Seat and priority. Choose place, travel with the family or the group in contiguous seats or embark first, part of 3 or 4 euros and can reach 35 euros. Sales on board. From snacks and drinks to raffles or Duty-Free. Third Party Commissions. Hotels, rental cars, insurance … Everything is inserted in the purchase flow to capture margin without even their own inventory. Subscriptions and gift cards. As choice fidelity programs. We could put in the equation even to institutional advertising. A reef. Cantabria is paying 18 million euros in four years for Ryanair to “promote” the brand on its website and maintain routes, he revealed eldiario.es. This proposal touches the Freemium And in fact nine years ago The CEO said That “within five to ten years, prices will be free, in that case the flights will be full”, referring to the possibility of monetizing both the aforementioned roads, and with the distribution of airport income. It is not something that has happened or seems that it will happen, at least within the period. The cost that fits in a backpack Ryanair presumes that Fly costs 34 euros per passengernot counting the fuel. The figure comes from an internal slide projected in Milan and exhibited by The Flight Club. If we crumble it … Staff: 8 euros. It lowers it with multipurpose crews and flexible contracts. Airport and Handling: 8 euros. It resorts to local subsidies, bases in secondary (cheaper) airports and the payment of minimum rates Property and maintenance. 8 euros. Its homogeneous fleet of Boeing 737 that lowers with mass orders that derive in large discounts. Routes and navigation. 6 euros. It resorts to point flights, without connections that make the final price more expensive. Others. 4 euros. Little for a minimal business structure and the use of free or low cost viral marketing. To compare: Easyjet, your rival Low Costhas a cost of more than double, 79 euros per person. Wizz Air leaves it at 52 euros. Always without counting the fuel. The traditional ones, such as Lufthansa, can go above 160 euros. That is what we add the increasing number of people who fly with Ryanair. There are four key levers that are worth highlighting: Unique and dense fleet. Those mentioned 737 (has more than half a thousand of thema good part of those of 197 places) consume 16% less fuel per seat and add 4% capacity. Simple mathematics. Express rotation. Since an airplane touches wheels until it takes again as soon as half an hour passes. That allows each plane to fly more hours and distribute amortization on more flights and more seats. Digital approach. He Check-in face -to -face costs 55 euros. A deterrence for most, a tariff for the accommodation in the analog. The result is that 99% do it online and Ryanair barely needs counter. AND wants to go further. Low profile airports. Stansted instead of Heathrow, Beauvais instead of Charles de Gaulle. Rates can be up to 80% cheaper and times direct and indirect public aid in order to preserve routes can compensate. The undercover subsidies, by the way, are overcoming borders and Morocco is following that wake. Spain, perfect laboratory The relationship of Spain with Ryanair is unique. This airline It controls almost 20% of flights that land or take off in Spain. The following in the ranking, at a certain distance, are also Low Cost. Besides, Spain is Ryanair’s second marketonly behind Italy and above the United Kingdom, with 2,416 million euros in revenue last year. However, the Fine of 179 million euros to airlines Low Cost imposed by the Ministry of Consumer in November also Ryanair splashed fully, who was charged 108 of those millionsreceivable hand luggage. O’Leary, the CEO, in its unbridled line, He called “Crazy Communist” Minister Pablo Bustinduy at a press conference threatened to cut routes in protest of what he considered an “illegal” fine. These types of orders are not isolated, but a usual play: it is enough to pronounce that threat to, very often, get the authorities to give up, although sometimes it does not happen and in fact Spain is getting tired of them. Is what has happened for example In Valladolid and Jerez this year. Some airports depend on their traffic in 60%, Ryanair knows it and plays with it in his favor to … Read more

We are increasingly sure that Mars hides a lot of water underground. The last track has been given to us an earthquake

by

There was a remote time in which Mars, today desert, had rivers and seas. We know some of the remnants that have remained, such as the Jezero river delta that explores the Rover Perseverance But that water may have been more than mere traces. A lot more. New tests. A geological study conducted thanks to the propagation of seismic waves on the red planet has obtained new evidence of the existence of water on Mars. Although the study itself does not imply a definitive test, it joins the list of studies that indicate that the neighboring planet is not as dry as it seems. A wet past. The Martian oceans had a short duration In geological terms. According to estimates, these would have disappeared between 4,100 and 3,000 million years ago (our solar system has about 4.6 billion years), in periods called Noeic and Hesperic. The lower gravitational attraction and the lack of a magnetic field that protect the Martian seas of the solar wind left Mars without superficial oceans. But from that water there was more than a handful of marks in the geography of the red planet: the water in solid state lasts ice -shaped either Integrated into its minerals. The enigma of the missing water. Some researchers detected a problem, and it is the difficulty that the sum of evaporated water, frozen or embedded in minerals could represent the total water that was once on Mars, they explain In an article for The conversation Hrvoje Tkalčić and Weijia Sun, co -authors of the recent geological study on water on Mars. Insight, to the rescue. In his recent study, the team took advantage of the data captured by the seismometer that the probe Insight He kept operating on Mars during his activity. During this period, Mars suffered an earthquake and received the impact of several meteorites, events whose seismic waves were recorded by the instrument aboard the now deceased probe. Studying the spread of these leads, the team identified an “anomaly” in a layer of the Martian subsoil located between 5.4 and 8 kilometers under the surface. It is a “low speed layer” that, according to the hypothesis proposed by the equipment would correspond to a layer of porous rock stuffed with water, “like a saturated sponge” or “something similar to the aquifers of the earth.” A lot of water. This layer could hide a significant amount of water, enough to house the water that dfalta in the accounts of the experts. “We have calculated that the ‘aquífera’ in Mars could house enough water to cover the planet in a global ocean of a depth of between 520 and 780 m, several times more water that keeps the Antarctic ice layer.” The details of the study will be published In an article In the magazine National Science Reviewbut for now we have to settle for a draft. Tests accumulate. This It is not the first time that we get evidence of the existence of vast amounts of water in the Martian subsoil. A little over a year agoa study conducted from the data of the European probe Mars Express reached a similar conclusion, that of the existence of huge amounts of water, enough to create an ocean of several hundred meters deep, in the Martian subsoil.

The persistence of the blockade in the middle of May brings us storms and a lot of uncertainty

by

In recent days, a Dana has been affecting a good part of the peninsular territory. And, even if it seems, the news is not that it will continue with us “favoring the development of intense and organized storms.” Will do it (As of Tuesday, “Depression will tend again to descend on latitude in an erratic and retrograde movement, approaching our geography”); But that begins to be the least. The most thing is that, for the umpteenth time, A persistent blocking pattern It continues to hinder the zonal circulation. A puzzle called “Spring of 2025”. As Sergio Escama explains in detailcurrent instability is due to three weather pieces: The anticyclone of the Azores that, despite being placed in its usual place, continues to have a strange elongation to the north (a kind of slide) that allows the arrival of Atlantic storms to the Peninsula. A dorsal that from Central Europe attracts the entire continent and arrives at the British Isles A continuous transfer of low pressures that passes between the two anticyclones and reaches our latitudes. Time-out! However, the next two days will be more stable and temperatures will tend to rise. Of course, the minimums will continue lower than normal and should not surprise us if we find frost in mid -May. But in a matter of days, the situation will become complicated again. Because, as I said, the Dana that now seems to get away will start going down back to us And, predictably, it will form a system with another that ascends from southern Africa. That is, between the Tuesday and Thursday a significant increase in stormy activity is expected. In fact, due to uncertainties associated with this type of phenomena, agencies are preparing: storms can be strong and t could affect any point in the country. Of course, the center, the north and some parts of the west of the peninsular territory They will take the worst part. What can we expect? In addition to low temperatures, What we are going to see They are storms (some very intense) that will cause rays, storms and hail. But that is in the short term, in the long term no one is very clear about what will happen. We are in a year in which many areas have seen rains as they did not see since the beginning of the records. March, as we know, has been One of the rainiest since 1961. The interesting thing is that May will also be above the average and nobody knows how all this will affect summer. So we enjoy it and cross our fingers so that this is not an anecdote, but a change of trend. Image | Tropical tidbits In Xataka | Spain has received more rain than ever this spring.
