Description
Ibertrola produced this sticker, an organization that criticizes the Spanish energy company Iberdrola and the energy sector. The image on the top of the sticker is the Iberdrola logo, a leaf, symbolizing renewable energy, followed by two blank drops. To the right, four additional drops indicate the breakdown of the types of energy that Iberdrola produces, 22.3% combined cycle, 23% thermal, 25% nuclear, and 20.8% hydroelectric. A footnote claims that this data is taken from Iberdrola. The hydroelectric category includes renewables. Iberdrola claims to be a leader in renewable energy, but this image questions this claim, signified by the question mark on the leaf. The logo, IBERTROLA, with the “T” highlighted in red, highlights the word “trola” in the company’s name. In Spanish, “contar trolas” means to lie. The organization’s website features articles highlighting the wrongdoings of Iberdrola and the energy sector in general. The initiative highlighted in this sticker may be considered part of the broader anti-neoliberal sentiments that manifested themselves in 15-M, a Spanish movement beginning in 2011 that protested high-unemployment, neo-liberal policies, and poor electoral representation, and the establishment of the Podemos, the political party founded in 2014 to promote the sentiments of 15-M.

Description-Translation
Esta pegatina fue producida por la organización Ibertrola, que critica a la compañía energética española Iberdrola y al sector energético. La imagen en la parte superior es el logo de Iberdrola, una hoja, que simboliza la energía renovable, y dos gotitas. Cuatro gotitas siguen, indicando la distribución de energía que produce Iberdrola: ciclo cambiando 22,3%*, térmica 23%*, nuclear 25%*, e hidroeléctrica 20,8%. Estos datos constituyen la distribución de producción de Iberdrola. Una nota dice que la fuente de esta información es Iberdrola y que la categoría hidroeléctrica incluye renovables. Iberdrola dice que es un líder en renovables, pero esta imagen cuestiona esta declaración, indicado por el signo de interrogación en la hoja. El logo, IBERTROLA, con el “T” en rojo, introduce la palabra “trola”, que significa mentir o intencionalmente decir algo incorrecto. El sitio de Ibertrola es un blog que subraya las trolas de Iberdrola y el sector energético. Esta iniciativa podría ser considerada parte de los sentimientos anti-neoliberales que se manifestaron en el 15-M, el movimiento español de 2011 que cuestionó el desempleo, las políticas neoliberales, y la falta de representación electoral, y Podemos, el partido político establecido en 2014 para promover los sentimientos de 15-M.
