Reply to comment by jbarrera03 in Mexico's second largest city plans to build 18 "green corridors" of trees to combat climate change. [Translation in Comments]. by Wandering_Mobiler
Fortunately heavy rains finally filled the reservoirs somewhat, ending the drought for about half a year.
This is actually why they plan on planting the streets, as they want to stop the pollution present in the city, and have more walkable areas to reduce the use of cars.
