Water - Fresh Water, Aquifers, and a Vanishing Valley
Welcome to our last part on water; during this episode we will be discussing fresh water, and just how much we have here on earth. Also; we will talk about where fresh water is stored naturally; and the price people are willing to pay for it.
Water is no joke; and in the West; folks die over it.
