#1 Year 1 San Andrés Island March 22, 2020
Because
of total drought, San Andrés uninhabited
San Andrés
Island. Yesterday, the last group of inhabitants left San Andrés
Island. Those responsible for this problem are: the lack of programs
to save water, contamination and over-exploitation of the aquifers,
and the felling and burning of trees. Without drinking water,
the economic possibilities and maintenance of any form of life
were so scarce that the population was forced to abandon the island.
Today only desert vegetation and a few diehard species of animals
that will survive with difficulty, remain. Continues on page 3B.
