For this reason the image I have taken it´s on the street, at the neighborhood level, a public element with energy consumption. The population is unaware of the great dependence they have of certain elements such as energy, water, infrastructure and transport. It is the use (mobile phones, laptops, tablets ...) of technology which have us pending of a battery and a plug. In the picture we see a mechanical ramp that are being installed in several municipalities of Bilbao to facilitate the ascent of the slopes which in some cases are very steep, but they are necessary ?? For many years we lived without these ramps, people with more or less effort managed to get to the top, and understanding that is mainly placed for seniors it has already created dependency on these streets, and even kids use them. Funny how someone who has gone for a bike ride or a run, that wanted to do exercise, use it. I think our energy dependence comes from the fact that we like when we have all the things done, when we do not have to make an effort or unnecessary effort.
