The cartel also focuses on extorting The Milenio report has identified 10 popular municipalities in which the criminal organization counts with a strong presence Atizapán de Zaragoza and Isidro Fabela are the ones under the control of "El 03." With so many criminal groups trying to assert their dominance in the area it is no wonder why the State of Mexico has turned into one of Mexico's bloodiest entities According to data from the National Public Security System (SESNSP) only Guanajuato (2,597) and Baja California (2.030) reported more homicides during that span than the State of Mexico (1,936) The homicide rate in the entity was nearly three times the national average during Jan-Oct of 2024, averaging seven homicides per day Take a visual tour of Mexico — from a wake in Tlalnepantla to a beach in Playa del Carmen — with this

out why Clorox is the place you’ll love Our Mexican manufacturing plant and distribution center have built on recent environmental successes by achieving zero waste-to-landfill status The Tlalnepantla (Mexico City) manufacturing site and the Tultipark distribution center are the fourth and fifth Clorox facilities to be certified zero-waste-to-landfill That means they recycle or compost 90 percent of materials they use and convert the remainder to energy This is one of the highest and most desirable eco-certifications we have at Clorox, and it’s essential to meeting our 2020 Strategy sustainability goal of having 10 zero waste sites by 2020 Clorox is committed to achieving Good Growth Achieving zero-waste-to-landfill requires clear vision leadership and most importantly: commitment The entire teams at Tlalnepantla and Tultipark are engaged in the recycling process Employees easily adopted the recycling spirit and incorporated it into their daily activities Contractors and visitors are trained about waste sorting policies from the moment they step into our facilities Tlalnepantla became Clorox’s first certified zero-waste-to-landfill manufacturing site in Latin America and Tultipark is the first Clorox logistics facility globally to obtain zero-waste-to-landfill certification where waste is incorporated as a raw material in the manufacture of new products both Mexican sites are also sending waste to co-processing facilities waste is used as combustible material to fire cement kilns The resultant ash is used to help make cement Co-processing combines the best of the recycling and “waste to energy” worlds as no residual material ends up in landfills The energy value of the combustible material aids one process and the ash becomes another product altogether Our zero-waste-to-landfill goal sets a high standard so of course we encountered challenges on our journey One of those was making sure our waste message was fully understood not only by employees but also by all contractors and visitors to the sites we had to find great partners to ensure we put in place a sustainable program These include external companies that compost organic waste plastics and metals and are able to co-process hot-burning waste streams They are key to implementing a sustainable program that allows Clorox Mexico to eliminate landfills for good Tlalnepantla and Tultipark are now leaders of recycling excellence in Clorox Latin America and beyond Their passion is quickly spreading to other operations which are getting closer to leaving landfills for good Mexico (AP) — Fears of new landslides slowed the search Saturday for more victims from the collapse of a hillside that brought tons of boulders down on a neighborhood outside Mexico City the municipality in Mexico state where the disaster took place Friday reduced the number of missing people from 10 to three Saturday after seven of the missing were located armed forces dogs continued to search the rubble for victims but officials focused their efforts on evacuating at least 80 homes in the area and stabilizing the land to allow heavy machinery onto the scene “You can still see cracks” in the hillside “Our engineers mark and do laser measurements and there has been additional movement on the slope.” Experts estimate that the largest boulder set loose by the collapse on Chiquihuite hill could weigh about 200 tons and is embedded in one of the houses Besides the size of the boulders and fears of more landslides the search is also being slowed by the neighborhood's narrow steep paths which are largely inaccessible to heavy machinery Friday's landslide in Tlalnepantla followed days of heavy rain in central Mexico and a 7.0-magnitude earthquake Tuesday in Acapulco that swayed buildings 200 miles away in the capital Alfredo del Mazo said Friday night that both factors likely contributed to the slide rescuers had carried a body on a stretcher covered with a sheet

Tlalpan to a hilltop site of traditional religious ceremonies in Ecatepec to the former city dump Bordo de Xochiaca and the industrial suburb of Tlalnepantla I’ve been lucky enough to be able to revisit parts of the city that I’ve been before and to explore others that I previously didn’t know What I’ve seen recently is a variety of self-built and government-sponsored neighborhoods in varied terrains and imbued with distinct histories As I’m coming into the last weeks of my work here I’m feeling a bit of the pressure to make a set of views of the diversity of the city’s built form and ways of living fit into a singular model of suburban and learn from residents of these different spaces I hope to continue to hone in on the underlying patterns of expansion But in the meantime, I want to simply share some of places I’ve seen.

As a youngster, he worked for his father, Evaristo, who ran a business which produced football shirts for local teams. Alvarez grew up idolising Ronaldinho and Rafa Marquez, both formerly of Barcelona clad in the No 19 once worn by his father in the Mexican lower leagues — he seized the chance to adopt that number at West Ham last summer — and was prolific But when thrust into a more competitive environment away from home he almost gave up his pursuit of a professional career in the game after the setbacks endured at his first club “I had left my house at the age of nine to follow my dream when a club came in for me,” he said “That was a very difficult decision for my parents and for me because I was just a kid I was there for four years and had some amazing moments but “I said to my parents (Evaristo and Adriana): ‘I don’t want to play football any more’.” He duly impressed in the youth setup and made his senior debut in 2016 against Santos Laguna a week after his 18th birthday — and never looked back There were 28 appearances in all competitions in that debut season and was prepared to forgive him his occasional errors “In Mexico, we say that a player at 18 has to learn, and where you learn is on the field,” Alvarez told ESPN When I started I made a lot of mistakes; I gave away a penalty against Chivas But La Volpe never dropped me from the team recognised his team-mate’s talent and took the midfielder under his wing at Club America He remembers being in awe of his qualities “He was a player we kept hearing about in the academy,” says Peralta That’s when I realised how talented Edson was “I’ll never forget this: I was preparing for the Confederations Cup in 2017 and the Under-20s World Cup was approaching Edson asked me if I thought he would be considered for the tournament I had such high hopes for him I initially thought he was talking about the 2018 World Cup in Russia but he was talking about the Under-20s World Cup who made his senior debut against Iceland in 2017 ended up earning his place at the senior tournament in Russia five years ago was the youngest player in Mexico’s 23-man squad He played in every match leading up to their loss to Brazil in the round of 16 “Now he’s become a very important player for Mexico We’ve lacked leaders in the squad over the years He could be a great captain for the team right now “In Mexico many of the players have nicknames I’ve also called him ‘Flaco’ because he’s slim and tall who played for Club America from 2016 to 2018 believes Alvarez’s mindset from an early age marked him out He would get annoyed when he followed a good game with a bad one I told him to stay calm and look for consistency I told him he would captain America one day “He travelled a long way to training sessions but you never would have known it from the way he trained It was extra gas to get him where he wanted to go He cleared every hurdle because he had this goal.” Alvarez won the Liga MX and Copa MX at Club America It was in the 2018-19 season that Alvarez’s importance to the team was most significant but our manager Miguel Herrera and Edson had their differences,” Peralta says “Edson was losing patience and started to get desperate at times He told the manager how he felt and the boss said something along the lines of ‘I respect you a lot because this tells me you really believe in yourself’ Edson ended up scoring the two goals (against Cruz Azul) that gave the club the title “I’m not surprised by his success because he’s worked for it He hasn’t even reached his full potential yet that he was planting seeds for the future every day in training,” he adds “He was a great signing for West Ham and he will make a name for himself there and in England West Ham will receive offers for him because his game is so perfect for the modern game (Top photo: Nigel French/Sportsphoto/Allstar via Getty Images) The Clorox manufacturing plant in Tlalnepantla proves that environmental leadership requires more than just complying with local regulations Proud of its continuous improvement processes, the plant joined a voluntary program called “Clean Industry,” which is managed by Mexico’s Environmental Authority (PROFEPA) This program verifies compliance and validates best practices in environmental risk

according to a report by the state auditor’s office (Osfem) Tlalnepantla and Atizapán de Zaragoza – all part of greater Mexico City – also face other problems including poor water services bad roads and underperforming government officials robberies of homes and businesses and muggings have made Ecatepec the most dangerous municipality in the country The most recent National Survey on Urban Public Security released by statistics institute Inegi in October shows that 96.3% of Ecatepec residents consider their city an unsafe place to live The most shocking criminal conduct reported in the municipality this year was the murder of as many as 20 women by a man dubbed the “monster of Ecatepec” and his partner who also allegedly sold the baby of one of their victims Naucalpan and Tlalnepantla have public debt of 246.7 million pesos (US $12 million) and 624.2 million pesos (US $30.4 million) respectively the state’s 2017 Public Accounts report reveals meaning that the new governments will face the challenge of finding funds to repay it The Osfem assessment said that levels of transparency and institutional development in Coacalco are in a critical state and issued 181 recommendations to municipal authorities the municipal government had committed to repaving roads but made no progress on the project For the next Atizapán de Zaragoza government one pressing challenge will be to update the municipal development plan because no studies identifying work that needs to be done have been completed since 2003 México state municipal governments will also inherit
