Barcelona’s Covered City Protests Wealth Tax | Spain News
Barcelona woke up to a city transformed overnight — iconic sculptures and over a hundred benches draped in fabric emblazoned with “Tax the rich,” orchestrated by an anonymous group calling themselves “the covered city.” This bold, peaceful protest aims to turn abstract debates on wealth inequality into tangible, everyday reality, challenging the wealthy to shoulder their fair share for public services. With no arrests made and Spain’s regions already divided on taxing fortunes, this visual uprising is a powerful, unignorable call for economic justice.

Spain’s AI Energy Challenge | Spain News
Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez is sounding the alarm on data centers’ soaring energy demands, warning that unchecked AI-driven growth could overwhelm the nation’s power grid. He’s pushing for strict new rules to ensure expansion is sustainable — both economically and environmentally — echoing regulations proposed last August. The plan mandates that 80% of new data centers’ electricity must come from renewable sources, while also tightening limits on water use. As tech giants like Amazon and Microsoft race to build massive facilities across Spain, the government aims to balance innovation with responsibility — a stark contrast to U.S. approaches that favor letting companies foot the infrastructure bill. With pressure mounting globally — including in Ireland — Spain is positioning itself as a leader in responsible digital growth, setting a potential global precedent.
