With the purpose of contributing to the conservation of the lake environment, UNESCO proclaimed the chinampas of Xochimilco as cultural heritage of Humanity in 1987. Currently there are programs to prevent the ecological deterioration of the canals that contemplate the preservation of the axolotl and various plant species.
