The metropolis of nearly 22 million people is facing a severe water crisis as a tangle of problems — including geography and leaks — are compounded by climate change.
You’re not drinking the tap anyway. Supposedly even the ice in the drinks is from bottles. The locals drink bottled too. I’ve never gotten sick there. It’s an amazing cosmopolitan city. You’ll have a blast. The ruins are sick. The dispensaries have mushrooms if that’s your thing. Tons of seafood. It was a moral quandary for me but I indulged in octopus last visit and it’s out of this world in many restaurants. Incredible museums and art.
How does one of the biggest cities on Earth have such poor quality drinking water? I’m not a water purification technician but, shouldn’t they have reasonable means to implement water treatment?
Oh fuck, I’m going there in April.
Fill your water bottle before you go!
Maybe 2 to be safe
2000 if you’re a capitalist.
Maybe bring a ladder to get down to the city
I was there about 6 months ago. Just plastic water bottles everywhere. You’ll be fine.
