The City of Corpus Christi recently held a reopening ceremony for the Watergarden, a popular local attraction. However, the city faces challenges in maintaining its water features due to low water storage levels, upcoming hot temperatures, and increased water demand. In response to the ongoing water shortage, the Austin City Council has unanimously approved new policies for long-term water conservation, with plans to revisit these rules by the end of the year for potential further tightening. Meanwhile, the water crisis extends beyond Texas, affecting areas from Central America up to the US Southwest, including severe conditions in Mexico City, which is on the brink of running dry.
Mexico City is in the midst of a water crisis so severe it may soon run completely dry. As the nation heads to the polls in June, water is becoming a sink-or-swim issue for those vying to take on the presidency, writes @danswimsMCS for @newlinesmag. https://t.co/NRtspp1kHm
