Along with 90 LED garlands are installed low-power, specifically the type microbombilla also environmentally friendly.
In this regard it is noteworthy that the town this year and for the first time, has led wreaths type in all lighting, a trend that will spread to all villages gradually over the coming years.
The mayor of Culture has stated that membership of this council to the Spanish Network of Cities for Climate us further enhance our commitment to the environment.
That is why in our actions we advocate to act in accordance with a policy of sustainable development and fight for the implementation of the Kyoto Protocol and Agenda 21 Local.

For this purpose we have to make an adjustment in the hours that the backlight is on.
