The objective of the work from which this
investigation is extracted was to examine whether
Laguito and its connection with the Caribbean Sea is due
to a sedimentation problem and the above has made it a
legal problem for the residents of the town. This was a
legal, quantitative socio-research, the method of this
research was the statistical one, and the units of analysis
were the perception of the inhabitants of Laguito about
the sedimentation problem of this body of water that has
become a legal problem. The analysis was done through
statistical survey and content analysis. As findings we
have, that the mouth of the Laguito body of water opens
and closes from time to time, because the sand of the sea
sediments there, preventing seawater from oxygenating
the water of the Lake and the main conclusions obtained
is that the Laguito sedimentation is a phenomenon that is
not new, in fact this problem has several years and
varied solutions have been proposed by the residents of
the town, which in fact have taken legal scope,
constitutional actions have been filed that bind the
District and to the Nation its execution, as well as those
applied by the state institutions, which have not had an
effect, considering that the laziness and disinterest of the
District authorities sharpens the problem of sea level rise
due to global warming, bringing as consequently the
defrosting of the poles that moves this water through the
sea currents, causing the risk of the Coastal area of the
city of Cartagena being flooded by the Caribbean Sea.
