If there is no method of harvesting that water, a majority of it evaporates.

Take a ride along the 10 freeway west of Pheonix. What would you see aside the road?
Many places, youll see brush “trees” Indicative to the region. Why? Because the highway is holding up the water allowing for vegetation to thrive.

I dont care who uses that water. If intensive water harvesting isnt implemented soon, there wont be water.

Ask the folks up at the Verde foothills or north of Payson.

In this valley where we live. We have enough for another 100 plus years at present use. The next valley over, they’ll have to drive the wells lower in a few years because the Aquifer is depleted.

But, they keep building. New developments all over. Who is building? One of them is Harry Reids old buddy Rhodes.
These shysters dont care. Its eff you, we want money and if you run out of water in years to come, that is your tuff luck.

Its a simple thing to build retainment ponds in dry washes to help capture water to let it rebuild the Aquifer. They did it in the depression days. And it works. The cure all? No. But it helps, and stopping new construction is the other alternative.

Like i mentioned. Money talks.

I tell everyone. DO NOT MOVE TO ARIZONA. We are running out of water.

Look at the studies done by various organizations on the water depletion in this state.
