Peruvian Senator Jaime Delgado has raised concerns about the increasing threat posed by illegal mining activities to the Nasca Lines and the surrounding region. He warns that unchecked mining is exacerbating a growing water crisis, particularly as the El Niño phenomenon approaches. Delgado urged the Ministry of Culture to strengthen protective measures for the UNESCO World Heritage site, emphasizing the vulnerability of the geoglyphs. Furthermore, he proposed leveraging ancestral knowledge from the Nasca culture to address the water scarcity issues. The Senator believes traditional techniques could offer sustainable solutions for managing water resources. This call to action highlights the interconnectedness of cultural preservation, environmental protection, and water security in the Nasca region. The issue was initially reported by Lima Gris.
