Tram trashed

NATIONAL POLICE have arrested three young people, aged 18 and 19, who sprayed graffiti on a tram in broad daylight. They caused damage estimated at more than €8,500.

Police were called when the group had been seen at the Terra Mitica stop near Benidorm.

Several officers from Benidorm police station went to the scene, reported the National Police on Friday, August 4. On arrival, officers observed the men before they ran off, but the officers pursued and caught them.

Once the men were detained, the agents met with the witnesses to the events, one of them being the tram security director, who provided the agents with the video images in which the men were seen.

The security director told the agents that the detainees had been painting graffiti for several consecutive days and that on one occasion they had pulled the emergency lever of the tram to stop it leaving, and had even placed stones on the rails to prevent the train from moving.

DENIA hospital has just renewed its Carbon Footprint certification, issued by AENOR, in which the Spanish Association for Standardisation and Certification recognises responsibility for reducing direct and indirect emissions of greenhouse gases.

Throughout 2022, the Hospital has reduced indirect or "Scope 2" emissions of Greenhouse Gases by 80 per cent, thanks to the fact that 85 per cent of the electrical energy consumed was from 100 per cent renewable sources. The commitment for 2023 is that all of this energy be green.

Indirect emissions are crucial to get a full picture of an organization's carbon footprint, as they reflect the full impact it has in terms of greenhouse gas emissions, not just those produced at its own facilities, but also those associated with its external energy consumption.

Scope 2 is one of three scopes defined by the GHG

Protocol, a widely accepted tool for measuring and managing greenhouse gas emissions.

Denia Hospital, operated by Marina Salud, has implemented various measures to save energy since its inception, such as the installation of LED lighting and the management of the internal bioclimate. In addition, it carries out a constant review of electricity, natural gas and medical gas meters to analyse and control consumption.
