During Bad Bunny’s last two “Cerramos en Casa” shows in Puerto Rico, he used his platform to highlight the “Esencia No Va” protest in Cabo Rojo. Esencia, approved by the Puerto Rican government in July, is a $2 billion luxury development project proposed for Cabo Rojo. If constructed, the massive “self-reliant” community would take up 2,000 acres in the coastal region, and many Puerto Ricans see it as a threat to the environment and the island itself.
According to the Defiende a Cabo Rojo coalition, which has been fighting the project for weeks, Esencia would take away resources like water and electricity from Puerto Ricans living there, worsening the droughts and blackouts that are all too common.
