Potential Implications In The Fight For Water Rights

Here in Arizona, we’re very focused on water — whether we’ll have enough and where we’ll find more if we need it or if we need to conserve more.

Our neighbor to the west, California, has already implemented cutbacks to deal with the effects of drought. But water challenges aren’t entirely about rainfall and snowpack and nature.

Nation contributor Laura Gottesdiener wrote the piece, "Detroit Is Ground Zero in the New Fight for Water Rights." We spoke with her about the story and the potential implications.
