They provide water and electricity to about 40 million people in Arizona, California, Nevada, Colorado, New Mexico, Wyoming, and Utah. The country's sixth largest river also irrigates 4 to 5 million acres of farmland in the Southwest.

- patatoman3년 이하Saving water won't help anything. they've been telling us to save water when in reality the water goes to another place water can't just disappear because its scientifically impossible. droughts are caused by severe heat and precipitation whenever there's a drought in one place there's flooding in other's because of all the water that's being moved.
- bulldogs073년 이하Yeah, like the floods in Jackson.
- horizon3년 이하I personally don't know what to say because this is happening on the other side of the US. I do feel however that action has to happen soon and the states need to come to an agreement on what is to happen. Who knows? The drought might affect us here in VA. You never know.
