The Wider Image: Collapse, contamination: Mexican scientists sound alarm at Mayan Train 
A residential area, which is being developed for section 5 of the new Mayan Train route, is seen from above in Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo, Mexico November 7, 2022. In the eyes of President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, the railway his government is building - known as the Tren Maya - will bring modern connectivity to areas for generations deprived of significant economic benefits. But pristine wilderness and ancient cave systems beneath the jungle floor are critically endangered by the railway and its hasty construction, droves of scientists and environmental activists say.

Environmental activist Cristina Nolasco, 32, explores the Yorogana cave, which she says has been affected by the construction of the new Mayan Train route, in Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo, Mexico, November 6, 2022. "This was completely clean, crystal clear, drinking quality water, until a few weeks ago," said Nolasco talking about the water in the caves, "what we see is that construction material is leaking to contaminate the drinking water we have on the peninsula."
