The passage of continuous storms and constant rains in Lanzarote have kept the island tinged with an unusual green color. Many are the island's residents and also the visitors who have wanted to take advantage of the occasion to walk through the countryside, discover the flora that sprouts with these rains and enjoy a different image of the island of volcanoes.Among them, a neighbor went to the Vega de San José valley, in the municipality of Teguise, and found a scene that worried her. This citizen has written to the section *Your Voice* to report how a green meadow has become a space for doing donuts with vehicles. In an image sent to *La Voz*, she pointed out "destroying nature""I saw many car tire tracks in a green meadow. It seems many cars have been enjoying one of the last days," highlighted this citizen, who wondered if these types of practices are legal on the island. The image was taken by Norwegian photographer Terje Jansson, during a walk on the island.
This type of practice is especially detrimental on islands like Lanzarote due to the vulnerability of its territory. Performing donuts on the island's terrain helps to erode its soils faster, and it also affects the growth of endemic plants of the archipelago such as broom or spurge. At the same time, it represents visual pollution on an island known for its landscape and categorized as a Biosphere Reserve
