Mexico convinces U.S. to delay border plant spraying...

Mexico has convinced the U.S. to [at least] delay the spraying and killing of vegetation. The herbacide they were planning to spray over 130 miles of the Rio Grande banks with has possible health effects - it is being compared to the Vietnam War-era Agent Orange chemical program. It could make its way into the groundwater, poisoning the water supply for Nuevo Laredo, which is located next to the river. Oh, and the project will cost $2.1 million. Nice move, America.
