#37: The Colorado River – Close to breaking point
In this episode of Tap’d In, hosts Jordan and Lana dive into the unfolding crisis of the Colorado River – once a mighty lifeline for the American West, now teetering on the edge of failure. Based on reporting from USA Today, they explore how megadrought, climate change, and overuse have drained the river’s supply, threatening the water security of 40 million people. As tensions mount between the seven dependent states, farmers and Indigenous communities in the Upper Basin face devastating shortages, while legal battles and controversial projects loom. Jordan and Lana break down what’s at stake – and whether collaboration or collapse lies ahead.
