| Publisher Description: "How great to see such a holistic, 360 degree view of such an essential thing."- Rachel Maddow. This updated 2018 edition reflects California's constant state of change. Inevitable natural disaster challenges to infrastructure like fire, flood, mud, drought, it includes a new essay on dam safety, with Oroville Dam as an example. Presented as an anthology in three dimensions - art, history, and story, it captures moments of change both visually and verbally. Droughts, floods and water quality issues cast harsh light on how we use water in our lives, our agriculture and our environment. Water policy and use are changing in dramatic ways. Water: More or Less provides intriguing insight as to how we got to this point, and proposes options for solutions and answers. Twenty-one top water policy leaders add their diverse voices with personal essays written just for this book, and tell why they care so passionately about water. |
