A reader comments on Lake Mead:
I was at the Hoover Dam when the lake was at its fullest. So seeing photos of it now, it’s just appalling how much water has “disappeared” — primarily into the desert to support sprawling subdivisions, and thence into the air as evaporation, I suspect. Foolish mankind.
Or at least sprawling lawns. Time for us to get competitive about using native materials, not imported grass from somewhere else.
