1 de febrero (February 1st) is rapidly rising on Google Trends MX because it is the date of the upcoming Consulta Ciudadana (Citizen Consultation) in Mexico. The consultation is a non-binding referendum that will ask Mexicans whether they support the current government’s proposed infrastructure and energy projects. The results of the consultation could have a significant impact on the future of Mexican energy policy.
The consultation is being held amidst a backdrop of rising energy prices and concerns about Mexico’s reliance on fossil fuels. The government has argued that its proposed projects, which include a new oil refinery and a natural gas pipeline, are necessary to ensure Mexico’s energy security and economic growth. However, critics have argued that the projects are environmentally unsustainable and will benefit private companies at the expense of the Mexican people.
The consultation has been the subject of much debate and controversy in Mexico. Supporters of the government have argued that it is a chance for Mexicans to have a voice in their country’s future. However, critics have argued that the consultation is a sham that is designed to legitimize the government’s already-decided plans.
The results of the consultation are expected to be announced on February 2nd.
