Lake Mead (And Lakes Downstream) Are Doomed
[Is Lake Mead In Nevada Drying Up? | The Good Human]
“Lake Mead’s water level dropped 14 feet last year and the Bureau of Reclamation predicts it will drop another 14 feet this year. That’s a drop of a whopping 28 feet in just 2 short years (and over 100 since 2000) - leaving the “folks in the know” to put 50-50 odds on Lake Mead being bone dry come 2021.”

Downstream is Lake Mojave and Lake Havasu, and, oh, the Colorado River.
