Water Scarcity Survey in Search of Solutions

We are geography students at UW-Madison working on our senior thesis project.

This is not extractive research. We are residents of these regions and are primarily interested in learning from and aiding our respective communities through participatory research methods.

The Colorado River Basin and Spain have both experienced prolonged periods of water scarcity over the last few decades, and we are interested in comparing public perceptions of the reasons for water scarcity in both areas. The survey consists of nine questions and should take about 5 minutes to complete. Your participation is voluntary: you may skip any question or exit the survey at any time. We are not collecting any personal information.

We truly appreciate your support, knowledge, and participation!

Clearly the government has emergency powers to prioritize residential water use. A free market approach for cities to acquire agricultural rights, but a threat by the government to curtail non-human crop irrigation could help facilitate those transactions. Why isn’t this being done?

This will end up in Lake Powell/Mead. This was two days ago in CO.
