Mexico's Endhó Dam Called a Forgotten Sacrifice Zone

Original: The Endhó Dam: One of the World’s Least Known Sacrifice Zones

The Endhó Dam in Hidalgo, Mexico, is being described as one of the world's least known 'sacrifice zones' — areas sacrificed to pollution and industrial waste. The reservoir has long received untreated wastewater and runoff from the Mezquital Valley and Mexico City region, raising concerns about water quality, public health and environmental damage for nearby communities.

Why now: Renewed attention to the dam's role as a long-ignored dumping ground for Mexico City's wastewater and pollution.
