Claim 2: “Mexico City is sinking by nearly 10 inches (about 25 centimeters) a year, according to new satellite imagery released this week by NASA, making it one of the world’s fastest-subsiding metropolises.”
SINGLE SOURCE
Multiple web search results report the specific claim that Mexico City is sinking by nearly 10 inches (25 cm) per year, citing 'new satellite imagery released this week by NASA.' However, the Wikipedia evidence provided is general information about NASA and does not confirm the specific sinking rate or the source of the imagery. Since the claim relies heavily on the specific 'new satellite imagery' mentioned in the web results, and this specific finding is not corroborated by independent, authoritative sources (like a direct NASA report link), it is marked as single-source based on the provided evidence set.
