The truth is you can't get more water from reservoirs that are empty.

If we can find a way to keep floodwater in reserve and to use it when it's needed, it will be a double boon.

I think you have to refill the well at some point.

There is a preliminary belief that Tuolumne River water could be captured by other reservoirs that are downstream from Hetch Hetchy, the Cherry and Don Pedro reservoirs for instance. Furthermore, any shortfalls could be supplied via greater conservation efforts, newly discovered groundwater supplies, and water purchases when necessary.

Conserving habitats is a wellspring for the next industrial revolution.

Hydraulic fracturing requires massive amounts of water. Disposing of the toxic wastewater, as well as accidental spills, can contaminate drinking water and harm human health.

I consider it top priority to improve water quality and increase water quantity in my community.

I needed to explain that Louisiana's coast accepts the drainage from two-thirds of the United States and, while the necessary levees constructed upstream have prevented floods, they have also contributed to problems downstream.

It is the small things in life which count; it is the inconsequential leak which empties the biggest reservoir.

In California, up to 15 percent of wells in agricultural areas exceed a federal contaminant threshold, according to studies.
