  • How the West Could Turn a Trickle of Water Into an Endless Supply

    Cities and counties in the American West, such as Las Vegas, Orange County, and Los Angeles, are leading the way in water recycling efforts to combat water scarcity exacerbated by climate change and population growth. The Colorado River, a major water source, is suffering from overuse and climate impacts, with historically low water levels in Lake Mead.

Investing in water recycling technologies is essential for addressing water security and scarcity issues, despite initial costs, to ensure a sustainable water supply for all.
