Choice of crops growing in La Paz, Maricopa, Pinal, and Cochise counties, AZ--as well as wasteful irrigation techques used--are partially to blame.

Another book on the west's water issues is Cadillac Desert.
Which Trump and his ilk have also never read.

I have not read #CadillacDesert, published in 1993, but have heard it’s a mindfuck: https://a.co/d/48kSZgC

Book cover for "Cadillac Desert: The American West and its Disappearing Water" by Marc Reisner. The black cover shows an aerial photo of Glen Canyon Dam, with red rock, black water, the white dam, and a silver bridge crossing the Colorado River.
