The recent floods in Mexico City have affected many homes and many of the citizens. Most of them feel guilty because they know that the garbage thrown in the streets has contributed to this. Due to this situation, the pollster Heras asked a series of questions where some citizens say they do not know if it is their responsibility or the government's. 47% said it was the fault of those of us who live in the City. A quarter of those surveyed said that the authorities cannot manage to remove all the garbage found in the drains while 12% think that the floods are due to poorly planned infrastructure due to the large population there is. in CDMX. For 15%, the responsibility falls not only on one of the points mentioned, but on all three. The capital's Civil Protection Secretariat has indicated that half of the floods are caused by garbage that clogs drains. It is worth mentioning that the city heads the list of the areas that flood the most in the country along with the State of Mexico, Baja California and Veracruz, states that face between 100 and 500 floods each year, according to data from the Mexican Association of Insurance Institutions (AMIS). The majority of those surveyed said that the government is not doing anything to put an end to the garbage that is found in the streets of the city, since 6 out of 10 assure that the authorities have not come to clean the drains of their neighborhood, and 7 out of 10 say that they have not seen the drains on the main avenues of the city being cleaned.
That is why the majority of citizens are preparing for future floods: 60% of the capital's residents believe that given the conditions of the sewers in their neighborhoods, it is possible that the streets of their town will flood. Garbage and floods In Mexico, 86 thousand tons of waste are produced daily , 13% is in the streets and the remaining 87% in landfills. This has caused 5% of puddles and flooding during the Europe Cell Phone Number List rainy season to be caused by garbage. According to Notimex, the National Center for Disaster Prevention (Cenapred) indicated that when waste is thrown away in a disorderly manner, it obstructs the flow of rainwater, causing its stagnation, which generates a source of infection and, in turn, , a health hazard. According to the Mexico City Water System, garbage prevents the rapid evacuation of rain from the drainage, 22,00 tons of garbage and about 26 thousand cubic meters of silt are extracted. What can be done to prevent the streets from flooding? To avoid flooding of the streets, the drains must be kept clean to prevent them from becoming clogged, the remains deposited in their place, and not thrown into public spaces, sewers, ravines and rivers.
Also prune trees, collect leaves and branches so that they do not obstruct the passage of water and inform the authorities of changes in rivers and streams, such as the smell and the increase or decrease in water flow. Check for obstructions in drains and other structures that prevent the drainage of rainwater, also report vehicles that clandestinely discharge gravel or waste. It is important to rescue the idea of throwing garbage in its place. It's all a matter of education that must be instilled in children and all people who throw garbage in inappropriate places. Some schools are already promoting it and some companies are also doing it. If you have a company, create campaigns to promote the separation and reduction of garbage in order to care for the environment . We must remember that greenhouse gases are produced by the large number of pollutants in the world and this is directly affecting us through the production of carbon dioxide.
