Good idea. That is actually one of the first things I did when running the code. And then came the realization that $key wasn't used anywhere within the loop! 
for my $key ( keys %$data ) {
  print "key = $key\n";  #debug

  my $zip = $data->{'zip'};
  my $descri = $data->{'happen'}[0]->{'descri'};
  my $extra_name = $data->{'notas'}[0]->{'ExtraName'};
  print "\n $zip - $descri - $extra_name\n";

}

I guess this is "off topic", but a feature of Perl.

If you have a constant like: use constant DEBUG => 1; and then have a statement like print "whatever line(s)" if DEBUG;, Perl is smart enough to eliminate this statement from the executable code when DEBUG is false (set to zero). For complex modules, I often leave code like that in the source. When I add a new feature, I turn debugging on. Print is your friend. I seldom need the Perl debugger.
