Preservation

Mexico's air pollution has created a serious environmental problem. Industries, vehicles, deforestation, and fires are to blame for the pollution. One measure taken to try and solve the problem was prohibiting driving on certain days, keeping vehicles off the road depending on the last number of their license plates but wealthier people bought another car with a different license plate number to avoid the law.

Water pollution is also an issue in some areas of Mexico because each area in the city only gets a couple of hours supply each day and water lies stagnant for up to 22 hours a day . Water gets contamination from bacteria and sometimes insects can even find their way into the tank which makes the water unsafe to drink.
