#MexicoCity, a mile and a half above sea level, is sinking, collapsing in on itself. Always short of water, the crowded capital keeps drilling deeper for more, weakening the ancient clay lake beds on which the Aztecs first built much of the city. It’s a vicious cycle, and one that’s only made worse by climate change: More heat and drought mean more evaporation, and yet rising demand means increased pressure to tap distant reservoirs or further drain underground aquifers. “Unlike traffic jams or crime, climate change isn’t something most people easily feel or see,” the @ニューヨーク・タイムズ critic Michael Kimmelman writes. “It is certainly not what residents in Mexico City talk about every day. But it is like an approaching storm, straining an already precarious social fabric and threatening to push a great city toward a breaking point.” @joshhaner photographed a man named Antonio using his 4 donkeys to deliver plastic containers of water to homes while on #nytassignment in the #Xochimilco district.
