VALLE ORIENTE |
|
 |
 |
| A mortal wound has been inflicted to the mountain - the bulldozers have been busy. | Instrument of destruction. |
 |
 |
| First the crumbling and then the terraces, and of course, as a consequence an unstable land, all added to our torrential rains... | . . . has taken them to take measures like the one above so all the excess of weight that the storms will cause won't make the buildings collapse, but... what will stop these walls from collapsing on top of the buildings??? Don't mess with nature!!! |
 |
 |
| The mountains, refuge of tortoises, bears, skunks, bats and many other species that inhabit them, are being destroyed by the "predating machines". | With all this concrete of buildings and streets blocking the natural sponge of the rain, our roads, all the way to Lázaro Cárdenas, will be flooded and will block the traffic causing accidents. As if we needed any more!!! |
 |
 |
| The "new street" that twists and turns around the mountain - allowing the predators rape the next mountain over and over again. . . |
"Your life in Valle Oriente starts here" - and will finish here, probably in a land slide. Notice how green and beautiful look the hills in the billboard, and the terrible contrast with what will be the reality, surrounded by concrete walls? |
 |
 |
| Mortgages provided by "Banco Inbursa": Now we know who supports the predators!! | The "Sales Hut" (Caseta de Ventas) located in front of the destroyed mountain. |
 |
 |
| All the view of the mountain is converted into a lunar landscape, lifeless!! | Without any vegetation to support the soil in its place, the rain will cause erosion of the land, and all that run off will be carried away down the mountain causing a torrent of mud and rocks, just like the one we have seen over and over again in Cumbres over Paseo de los Leones. |
 |
 |
| Here is their idea of "luxury apartments"... | ...and here is the reality. Those who face the back of the building, will face a lovely view of the concrete wall. Would you feel safe living in a place like this full of rubble as a foundation?? |
