SAN DIEGO (Border Report) — San Diego County Chairwoman Nora Vargas plans to provide her constituents with air purifiers to fight the smell and airborne pollution in the Tijuana River Valley.

Raw sewage from Tijuana has flowed into the valley north of the border for decades, especially during storms.

Studies in recent years have shown how bacteria from the sewage is getting into the air and making nearby residents sick.
 

County health statistics also show more people in the area are coming down with digestive and intestinal illnesses than ever before.

THEY CAN'T DO THAT!!    Think of the increase in global warming!  They will just have to get used to the stench!  No one is above global warming, just ask the president.

Mexico isn't building/maintaining necessary sewage treatment plants because the (literal) crap doesn't cause a problem for Mexican citizens (except illegals in San Diego County, of course).
