New American embassies are becoming more expensive to build,the cost for the building of a new embassy in Mexico has gone up one third the amount of the original prospected cost. one of the main problems is that the site used to be a Colgate-Palmolive factory for decades and the are has alot of toxic waste in it.The construction has also been held back because of the lenght of time it is taking to clean the waste.
I think this shows how our worlds industrialiation and using of resuourses affects us in the most unexpected ways.
