Who’s Taking America’s Water? | Climate Town

A Climate Town episode on who uses America's water, particularly Western water. It looks at agriculture such as alfalfa and animal feed, and at water-rights rules that discourage conservation.

HN points to it in Colorado River and water-use threads as an accessible explainer of why the Western water shortage keeps getting worse.
