President Donald Trump has highlighted concerns regarding the sewage system in Tijuana, Mexico, which he claims is discharging untreated waste into the Pacific Ocean near the United States. He noted that the ocean is often in poor condition due to this issue. San Diego County Supervisor Jim Desmond has described the situation as an 'environmental catastrophe,' emphasizing that millions of gallons of sewage are flowing into the U.S., impacting local beaches and the southern border. The problem has been exacerbated by the rapid population growth in Tijuana, leading to training disruptions for Navy Seals and beach closures. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Secretary Lee Zeldin is scheduled to visit the affected area in the coming weeks to address the situation.
