Degradation And Environmental Risk At TheDiamond Zone, Acapulco, Mexico

2013 
The list of selected temporary or permanent residents in the geographical area identified as Diamond adjacent to the destination Acapulco, Mexico is a private community meant to be a draft Integrally Planned Center (IPC). A paradigm of the Mexican resort presents inexorable problems contributing to environmental degradation, due to the lack of sufficient water and sewer systems. Fractured septic drains create run off which inevitably leaks into the groundwater, causing very low level contamination. Waste water treatment plants that are entrenched rendering them useless, resulting in the raw water running to the sea and threatening to impact the coastal zone, degrading a coastal resource gradient, providing a ballast which constitutes the misfortune of corrupt resource-hungry governments bypassing the alteration which is a violation of nature away from the precepts of sustainability. The rationale for implementing a development enclave was a scheme that compelled speculation and corruption to the nuclei of replicating native built shanty towns. Residents absent from the underlying problems of territoriality, which expresses the reality between society and the environment, where entrepreneurs unconsciously destroy, build and abandon land by altering the use, ignoring the environmental impacts incur authorities colluding with leniency to the regulations in protecting biodiversity. The research analyzes and provides information, linking reflection and debate on territorial dynamics and the problems of the socio-economic, territorial and environmental, as a result of changes in the pattern of urbanization, commercialization, turbulence emanating that the authority dismissed as Agenda 21 (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil 1992) and environmental impunity.
