Entry#5: "Arizona Water Shortage Crisis."

Arizona water problem, 

The water problem in Arizona has been addressed in this article. Water is low in Arizona due to the state's dry desert heat. There will be less water left on hotter days because dehydration is more likely to happen.  Arizona gets its water from the Colorado River, Lake Mead, and Lake Powell, all of which are being affected by temperature increases.  The biggest lake in the United States, Lake Mead, has experienced low water levels. The story states that Lake Mead has experienced a super dry of 20 years. Since 2022, the lakes and rivers have been listed as having a level one shortage of water.  This has forced Nevada, Mexico, and Arizona to cut back on the amount of water they use. 

This shows that the underground groundwater used in Arizona is mineral-rich, which leads to hard water that is hard on the body. The most effective course of action to take for this water problem in Arizona would be to put together a plan for water flexibility.
