, and in areas around Mexico City and Michoacán, the problem has gotten so bad that lakes and reservoirs are drying up. , and residents of the nation's central region said Thursday that lakes and reservoirs are simply drying up, including the country’s second-largest body of fresh water.
Isaías Salgado, 60, was trying to fill his water tank truck at Villa Victoria, a task that normally takes him just half an hour. On Thursday he estimated it was taking 3 1/2 hours to pump water into his 10,000-liter tanker. The capital's 9 million inhabitants rely on reservoirs like Villa Victoria and two others — which together are at about 44% capacity — for a quarter of their water; most of the rest comes from wells within city limits. But the city’s own water table is dropping and leaky pipes waste much of what is brought into the city.
Farther to the west, in Michoacan state, the country is at risk of losing its second-largest lake, Lake Cuitzeo. About 75% of the lake bed is now dry, said Alberto Gómez-Tagle, a biologist and researcher who chairs the Natural Resources Institute of the University of Michoacán.
We cannot drink oil. We cannot drink lithium.
Most is wasted due to leaky pipes. They need infrastructure help. Come on cartels, pony up!
American Republicans this is why Global Warming is important to you. If the Mexican people don't have water to drink because of Global Warming, they will migrate north to survive. We must go green to slow Global Warming down.
moonshadow623 DF keeps on draining Michoacán lakes via an underground aquifer system. I saw Lake Cuitzeo in the same dry shape 30 years ago. The Capitol rainwater catchment program is non sustainable. The US must take note. ClimateAction
I saw the fires in California and Australia last year. Climate change is here.
Isn’t this the “Our next big thing is going to be climate change awareness—fear sells.”
