"Water Schools" Foster More Sustainable Habits In Mexico

named after the schools attended by the children of the nobility in the Aztec empire - set up a water school in the city of Taxco, in the state of Guerrero, 150 km south of Mexico City. Outreach workers from 12 surrounding municipalities are active in the school.
