Water Crisis in Mexico City
Mexico City is facing a severe water crisis with more than 60 million people in the country lacking daily access to water. The city relies on underground waters for most of its supply, which is depleting rapidly due to low rainfall levels in recent years. The situation is critical, with neighborhoods rationing water due to dwindling resources, and dams that supply a significant portion of the water nearing depletion by the end of June if it doesn't rain soon.
