Watch Written on Water

Written On Water focuses on the Ogallala Aquifer and examines the conflicts, politics, economics and groundwater depletion in the High Plains region. The aquifer supports over one-fifth of the grain, beef and cotton of the U.S. agricultural economy and over 80% of the drinking water in this region. However, the Rocky Mountain waters that fed the Ogallala Aquifer are not being replenished.
