In recent years, water agencies have reached deals to take less water from the Colorado River. But those reductions haven’t been nearly enough to halt the river’s spiral toward potential collapse. “It’s not going back to how it was before.”  buff.ly/3H9sO3B via

The Colorado River is overused and shrinking. Inside the crisis transforming the Southwest
The Colorado River is approaching a breaking point, its over-tapped reservoirs dropping. Years of drying have taken a toll at the river's source in the Rockies.

Brutally killing people and then telling the public to only respond peacefully is one of the most wildly absurd things that's normalized as police kill more and more yearly. When they say “peace” they mean respect and accept the state's monopoly on violence.
