36% Of Arizona’s water comes from the Colorado - A serious issue to be sure, but not Armageddon. There’s a lot people could do to conserve. Also folks bitch about all the housing being created, but housing is largely created where farmland used to be. Housing consumes less water per acre than Farms do. In fact, 72% of Arizona’s water is used on farming. America has a choice to make regarding food production. Do we find ways to increase the water supply in farm rich, water poor states, or do we all die together?
sure you say a house doesn't use as much water but housing brings in many more people, more lawns more hot tubs, more pools, more golf courses....
