             Human power comes from our intelligence and ability to tell stories and cooperate. But are these truly our best qualities?

             Mi gente de CDMX, Morelos y EdoMéx, esto es simple: Menos árboles=menos agua. De aprobarse el Programa General de Ordenamiento Territorial (#PGOT) se urbanizarán 30,000 hectáreas de suelos de conservación. Es decir, habrá menos árboles y habrá menos agua. Exijamos su rechazo.
