What does it take for a massive civilizational infrastructure to manage its catchments, #watersheds, #wetlands, & #forests as preventative solutions to #drought? I hope someone's asking questions like this (without threat of being suppressed, or worse, for saying so).

"Mexico City could run out of drinking #water by the end of June, an event locals call "#DayZero."

#MexicoCity has long struggled to bring water to its millions of residents, but 3 consecutive years of low rainfall & high temperatures have created a serious emergency.

The Cutzamala water system — a series of treatment plants, reservoirs, & canals that provide water to tens of millions of people — is running dry.

About 40% of Mexico City's water is lost due to leaky pipes."
