The first part of this book was pretty fascinating learning so many new facts about water that I feel as if I should have learned at some point in my life, and it’s glaring how we take the availability of water for granted. Then the author goes into detail about a number of different water projects, to what end I am not sure. No pun intended, but this was a bit dry, and didn’t follow a cohesive outline - and like any books about environmental issues, it’s kind of depressing. I did personally enjoy learning more about Las Vegas, because that city hold a special place in my heart, and how they are actually doing extraordinarily well with water conservation compared to other city/states.
