Worries abound that Mexico's Maya Train will destroy jungle
Summary by Ground News
The Maya Train is a $20 billion dollar project envisioned by Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador. The 1,500 kilometers of rail will pass through unique ecosystems, including the limestone formations filled with freshwater known as cenotes along the Mayan Riviera. This raised a wave of criticism and lawsuits last year that got international attention and temporarily halted the work.
