seems Mexico president is on Coca Cola payroll
We did have a president that was a former Coca Cola VP. Vicente Fox. The guy sold the entire country.
In fact, in the 2000s, the president of the republic, Vicente Fox, who was CEO of Coca Cola, privatized water.
@@leonardohernandezcabrera7541Proof? Are you deaf? They said in the mexican constitution water is a human right. Brainlet? Do you speak english?
he is on the "coca" payroll, the president protects them with it's "hugs not bullets" policy
The payroll has had many of Mexico’s presidents.
Bro said with a straight face there's no water shortage 😂
And they love him for it🎉🎉🎉.
Brought to you by CIA AND VANESSA HUAC JUST ANOTHER MADE UP STORY. IT WAS AMERICA THAT BROUGHT COCA COLA TO THE STATES AND NOW THEYRE COMPLAINING THERE IS NO WATER, is it your country or is it a Mexicans?
"There's a drug problem, not enough of them!" straight face continues
This is how they’ll treat LA when Castaic fails. If you can’t leave, you’ll definitely di3.
Holy crap, he straight up said there wasn't a water shortage!!! 🤯
must have been taken out of context, seems wierdly cut

MALO a mediocre inept and incompetent president@@pottertheavenger1363
The response from the Mexican president is appalling. There is a grave water shortage in Mexico and there has to be a solution before there's no water to feed all of Mexico City.
Meanwhile, politicians buy up water trucks, and increase the prices ....
That's his MO. He is horrible. He also ran around at the beginning of the pandemic with COVID spreading, refusing to wear a mask and getting up close and personal with everyone, kissing babies, etc. Mexico ended up having one of the highest mortality rates in the world. Failure after failure.
Cartels been controlling and stealing all the water trucks for the last 10yrs..
@isocarboxazid where's CONvid now? I didn't get a shot or sick and I still worked through all of convid because I was an essential worker. No mask at all and I traveled throughout the usa . Didn't get sick once
@@texaswayz2289you were lucky, millions weren't.😢
Enjoy Coca-Cola while praying for rain. That's insane.
Illegal Avocado orchards are sucking up a lot of water in that area of Patzcuaro Michoacán too.
A lot of it is due to Coca Cola making the water supply near their factory undrinkable just so they can sell drinks to locals now they can’t drink water as an alternative
I hope American tears 😭 will hopefully replenish the lake once all this people show up at the border. We got plenty of room. All the Dakotas, Montana and Wyoming could use some people.
@lauraschwed1545 let them live with you! You can pay for them

If that's not corruption than I don't know what is.
Still not as bad or as incompetent as the democrat politicians in California.
It's the American way!
huh? half of mexico was stolen by the usa, and they kept the biggest rivers. and they even demand that water flowing into mexico from those rivers is returned. it's easy to type just about anything isn't it? the real deal is to learn and get informed.
You hate black America
its call incompetence.
Classic politician lecturing his constituents on how he understands their own problems better than the people themselves. 😒
I bet you it was gen beata

It's almost like Coca-Cola will just use up all the water and leave when there is none left.
Use up all the water and move to another city to use all their water. While keeping the politicians on the payroll.

There are coca cola plants in all México, but only Chiapas has that problem? They have a bigger problem of super corrupt local politicians.
So Coca Cola takes the water and gives this kids liquid sugar instead. That's criminal.
No, that’s shareholders value.. 😅
The typical response of human beings deny whatever you don't want to be true or whatever you don't want to hear and the problem will magically go away.
Keep denying and reproducing like rabbits... and praying.

Enter the corporations selling sugar water. Surprise, surprise.
I've read and heard that coke has really contributed to water being scarce.
They take all of the water to make coke. Why should they get the water first?
@GrandmaBev64 Because they are allowed to by corrupt politicians and bureaucrats. It takes two to tango, yes Coca Cola is greedy and will do anything to squeeze an extra penny of profits, but politicians don't have to let Coca Cola run rough shot but they do.
Coke bottling plants have got kicked out of India, they've got kicked out of everywhere
It’s true. So has bottled water, especially Nestle.
@@Beelzebubby91 nestle is an evil company.
Coca Cola is terrible…
But mad refreshing my favorite drink besides water.
It's a healthy alternative 😊
@@hello-sz1jp Yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!
It's nice with Whisky
In the Mexico version they still use actual cocaine.
People in Mexico are forced to collect rainwater, and this was before this drought.
At least they're allowed to. In america it's illegal to collect rainwater
It's common around the world for people to collect rainwater it's been going on for centuries.
There is no rainwater. It's not raining. People don't seem to understand that's the problem
@SynWasHereYo if there's no water you go somewhere else
It's not America's problem. They've done fine for these thousands of year. Make it work
No it's not.
That’s quite a dire situation. Too bad the president is delusional and arrogant.
Coca-Cola has lined his pockets, belly or both.
@@user-4m9-dr80h4Yum
Can’t expect a president to fix everything in six years that those others didn’t fix in decades all they ever did was still and sell the country out this man has giving more than those ever did but you’ll never hear the good things in this news
They really should pray to Trump, the one true God.
@@telengardforever7783 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Coca cola should just sell water. And give a ration of free water.
Coca-Cola does sell water in the United States they charge $2.50 for a 12-oz bottle of Coca-Cola made in Mexico with cane sugar Nestles corporation owns almost all of the water in another South American country.
I was in Mexico recently, they do have bottled water but it's expensive. Most of these people can't afford it for cooking or cleaning. It's very sad.
They should give water free! They get it for free from Mexico's resources. They caused this. They need to make up for making people sick with their products.
Access to water is a human right. It should be free or very low cost. Not an expensive product of a greedy irresponsible corporation.
@@richardcampbell7255: bro 8 countries have Drought from Mexico to Panama to Chile . 🙃 you going to blame one small Corporation ? Or a politician ?
The American reporter agrees that water is a human right as our own government denies clean water for many communities.
Do something about it.
Good thing rainy season in Mexico is right around the corner
yeah but usually after a drought its just floods
We'll see. There is also supposed to be a rainy season where I live, and it has been coming less and less every year. Meanwhile, following severe drought, monsoon conditions will lead to massive flooding.
It's not, there'll be drought the whole year cause of la niña phenomenon
Coca-Cola is not panicking... These people offer Coca-Cola to their Gods/Devils.
Coke has a responsibility for taking all of the clean water to make their sweet products. Why can't Coke offer water? This is criminal! Why should Coke get all of the water? The CokeCola Company needs to do the right thing! They have known for years their products hurt people. They taste good, but at what cost?
People can stop buying Coke...it would be a uprising situation !!
they do, except it's even more expensive than coke!
why ppl support these corporations anymore is beyond me
😂😂
They don’t even taste good. That’s where y’all will stay lost and a slave to them. It’s just a dark sugary carbonated water. No real flavors
PRAYING FOR WATER,HOW ABOUT YALL GET RID OF COCA COLA FACTORY!
Cataluna in NE Spain is dry as a bone too.
Ironically, Mexico has the largest fresh water deposits on earth. It's located in the Yucatan Peninsula, called cenotes.
And those Cenotes, were already violated, invaded, and polluted, because of the pilots in the construction of Tren Maya, another crazyness from this Narcopresident we have.Tren Maya was build by the army so all the documents about it were called as a national security topic by the goverment , and not be available to anyone, and hard to sent them to trial. and as a big coincidence.... one of the first location were the tren Maya begins... is few streets close to a big house, where the president will live after leaving the possition.
yeah i mean, AMLO's not lying, México has all the water. But now it's all WASTE water man
Except that's not true. The largeat fresh water deposits on earth are located in South America, shared by Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay.
@@Ballistic-vn6emand Paraguay, the deposit name is In guarani the original language of Paraguay
@@zhiro_3 That's right, Paraguay has a good portion of it too. Thanks.
This is also happening now in South East Asia.

How sad 😂 running out of water while avacado farms and Coca-Cola are seizing water
Shame on Coca-Cola!!
Nestlé did the same thing in Northern California for their water bottling division.
Coca-Cola is owned by Nestlé
I'm starting to sense some Mad Max vibes here. ''Do not become addicted to water!''
had a dream about this... its going to get really bad
Me too. 😢
It’s bad and that’s why you had a dream about it
The response from Mexico's president says more than just about the water crisis. It's about why Mexico can't fight corruption and so many Mexicans only hope for a better life is in America.
He's on his way out. That's the good thing about Mexico, no reelection just one six year term.
I don’t understand. Y’all have a whole country and can’t get it right. But speak so highly of themselves.
You call it corruption, other "cultures" call it lobbying! 🥰

The greatest challenge of this world is knowing enough about a subject to think you are right, but not knowing enough about the subject to know you are wrong…
This sad situation is not limited to Mexico. There are areas of Texas that could also become arid zones. Large housing developments continue to draw water from limited water sources. On top of that Texas is a state that has failed to regulate the very water-wasting Bitcoin industry. Bitcoin uses specialized computers around the clock to validate transactions. All that computing power burns through a lot of energy. And like other data centers, crypto mines also use a good deal of water in their cooling systems to keep machines from overheating.
Add Arizona to that list too! Saudi Arabia was sucking up water for so many years to grow alfalfa for their livestock because it was free with land purchase. Thank goodness they put the kaibosh on it! But we are facing water scarcity in Southern AZ. While you are at it add all four corner states to that list.
Take Oaxaca City for example, govt officials bought up water trucks and cornered the market on water deliveries, prices skyrocketed.
People are addicted to soda. I suggest reducing the sugar content slowly so they dont get mad.

Here in east Texas we've had 3 days of torrential downpours. I'm sitting here looking at a lake that used to be my yard. At this point I'm wondering if I should give Coca Cola a call or just stock my new lake with catfish and charge people to fish in it. It's all relevant, one area is getting no rain and others are getting too much!
I pray that everyone get closer to the lord🙏🏾
Its the only hope. For our "world" is at its end.
Nada qué ver 😂
Mexicans have raised avocados for decades and that crop uses huge amounts of water. Then they ship them to America. We trade Coke and they trade avocados.
The Coke is bottled locally.
So soda is more important to the president I see ..
My family lives in Toluca, MX a city 45min from Mexico City and this has been going on for a years now. The local government only turns on the water once a week where they live. The president is lying, what a shock.
So the extreme heat is not just for India and SE Asian nations
Chiapas is like the movie Idiocracy, they drank gatorade instead of water, they were watering the crops with gatorade too 😆
It's not like Idiocracy, at all. Your lack of understanding is totally disrespectful. You have no clue how poor these people are, especially in Chiapas- the poorest state in all of Mexico, with 98% of people living in poverty and 50% living in extreme poverty- and how few resources they have. The government in Mexico is owned by two things: the drug cartels and corporations. The people do not have any say over Coca Cola's behavior, and they drink the cheapest thing that they can get.
@@isocarboxazid is the coca cola cheaper than the dasani? I don't know how it is in mexico, but in the US, bottled water is cheaper than soda. I get a 24 pack of bottled water (17 oz bottles) for 5 bucks, a 24 pack of coca cola (8 oz cans) is 10 bucks
Coca cola isn't good for you
Everyone has to work together.
Y’all also owe us water, from TX
The worst drought since 1941. Was it climate change that caused it back then?
Probably just the increase of industry.
More people means less water to use and produce goods.
Also driving causes it.
That was like ww1 and they probably used alot of resources.
@@desperadodeluxe2292The fact that you think ww1 was 1941 shows how dumb you are.
Natural variation
@@desperadodeluxe2292I always thought Mexico was neutral during WW2.
Climate change or a lack thereof or the cause of climate change, as has been explained ad nauseam, cannot be derived from singular events taken in isolation. Incidence rates are incredibly important to understand how much solar irradiance the Earth is retaining, how it is changing certain cycles, and how that disruption affects further weather patterns.
Mexico Pres looks lit
There are major draughts and heatwaves in tropical Thailand also!
This is why I laugh at people who complain about the price of gas. I hate to think what the cost of a bottle of water fit to drink will cost in 10 - 20 years from now.
So are we going to be called “Dry Backs” now?
I wish this was funny. Just embarrassing
That is unfortunate.
Unfortunate? It's not a matter of misfortune, it's called corporations run amok with their greed and destruction

They're too busy commiting genocide to steal land. If they're so good at desalination why continue to divert and steal Palestinian water?
Most of the land in Mexico is originally desert, which is actually normal. However, I am more worried about whether the United States will become a large desert like Mexico in the future. Desertification of land around the world is becoming more and more serious. The United States will also become a large desert one day in the future.

Not trying to be funny. But it seems to me all the water is in Brazil and China. With all the flooding they’re experiencing it’s not a surprise that somewhere else is having extreme drought.
Title: "Major cities in Mexico"
Video: shows only countryside
Balance has been lost. Brazil has massive floods, France terrible storms, central and Southern USA major tornado outbreaks, Arctic ice is melting away, Bering Sea ice is almost non existent, fisheries are collapsing, 100s of wildfires in Canada driving 1000s of people from their homes, but the one thing everyone should be worried about is the report from USDA that in the food growing regions of the change in the length of the growing season has changed. Flooding and record high temps, downpours have all affected crops from apples to zucchini. Cherry harvest was really a rush to get the fruit off the trees and any that didn't were too sunburnt to market. We saw entire cherry orchards NOT picked because of this in Washington State. Balance must be restored.
Corporations should invest in water desalination using ocean water, instead of wasteful investments
