Mexico City’s water crisis – Recommended article from The Guardian Cities
Watts follows Mexico City’s piped water from the dams of the Cutzamala system to the domestic tap, then down the drain as it is converted to sewage and pumped towards the agricultural region of Tula, Hidalgo.

A Spanish translation is also available.
