Whether it’s pushing for stronger groundwater protections for rural Arizonans or going after big water polluters, I understand the need to protect our most precious natural resources. Happy Earth Day, Arizona!

EPA chief Lee Zeldin called for Mexico and the U.S. to develop a “100% solution” to stop the flow of raw sewage from Tijuana that has polluted the Tijuana River and left communities near the border coping with foul odors and beaches that are often closed. latimes.com/environment/st…

It only needs 6,107 of the over 10,500 gathered signatures to be approved. Thank you to Tyler Hudgins and the team he built for the opportunity to vote on this. Incorporating doesn’t solve our problems, it just gives us more access to solving them for ourselves.

I wish this were the case, but they are invester-owned utilities and they answer to their shareholders who demand profits. That's how their business works. Only if we have a strong regulator in the Corporation Commission (spoiler: we don't) do the ratepayers get protected

🚨#HB2679 🚨 Opponents, like Sundareshan, Attorney General Kris Mayes and environmental groups, say the bill lacks oversight and guardrails that will allow the Corporation Commission to ensure utility companies only use securitization when it is in the best interest of customers.

The company that sells Arrowhead bottled water won a court ruling overturning a decision by regulators, who had ordered it to stop piping millions of gallons of water from a national forest. The judge ruled the state water board "exceeded its authority." latimes.com/environment/st…

New research shows the depletion of groundwater in the Colorado River Basin far exceeds losses from the river’s reservoirs. Scientists say overpumping is leading to alarmingly rapid declines — a volume of water comparable to an entire Lake Mead since 2003 latimes.com/environment/st…

Scientists estimated that pumping from wells has drained ~28 million acre-feet of groundwater since 2003. Much of the depletion is occurring in Arizona, where the bulk of the water is pumped to irrigate farmland in the desert. latimes.com/environment/st…

Just read Ian James’s powerful piece on the groundwater crisis in the #ColoradoRiver Basin—deeply moving. I wrote this in response, on the global failures of the Hydraulic Mission and its disastrous legacy. And yes, never forget the #WaterMafia. 💧 nikkowsar.substack.com/p/hydraulic-mi…
