Added the city to the headline to be a little less click-baity.

We’re at the very end of an El Nino season. It will be a La Nina this summer. That is far worse news for Bogota because it means drier conditions in the southern hemisphere.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The meme reflects a sense of dark humor among some Bogotànos following the city authority’s announcement Monday that residents would have to ration water as drought, fueled by El Niño, pushes reservoirs toward record lows.
“Let’s not waste a drop of water in Bogotá at this time,” Mayor Carlos Fernando Galán said in a news conference Monday, adding, “that will help us so that these restrictions can be lifted more quickly or reduced.”
Bogota is different in that almost all our supply comes from surface waters like reservoirs, which are more susceptible to rain patterns,” said Armando Sarmiento, an ecology professor at Bogotá’s Javeriana University.
The government issued a natural disaster decree in January to mobilize resources in an effort to combat its devastating effects, including wildfires and water stress.
As global warming makes extreme weather such as heatwaves and drought more common and more severe, experts warn that the stress on cities’ water systems will only increase.
Sarmiento, the ecologist, told CNN that while it’s hard to predict how the climate will evolve in the coming years, both the city and the country more broadly need to be better prepared for future crises at a much bigger scale.

If they’d all stop doing drugs maybe they could’ve planned a bit better /s
You know they only make the drugs, Americans sniff them. So Americans should stop doing drugs and creating the market. I know you intended this as sarcasm but after 47 years of being Colombian even the jokes get old really fast
I live here in Medellin. Locals take just as many drugs as foreigners do. Go into barrio antioquia and it’s only locals doing drugs, no foreigners.
They should legalize the trade to get rid of the criminals. That would reduce more harm than the current system. Thinking that only americans are causing the problem is part of the problem.
I didn’t know where this city was, I was just making a pun off of “highest”. Would’ve been more sensitive if I’d realised. Sorry :)
