“The watersheds most affected by declining snow water were the Okanagan in B.C., the Assiniboine-Red River basin in Manitoba and the Saskatchewan River basin.”
This will intensify.

My iPad picks random nature shots from my photo library as lock and Home Screen images. Smiled when I saw this one… not really a “nature shot”, but it is a nice reminder of a time when I made a local private forest company quite upset. 😂 😠 🌲 💧
#ColquitzRiver had flooded out but has now receded. It will likely flood again because more rains are expected this week.

#30daymapchallenge Day 27 "Boundaries": imagining a North America with countries, states, and counties replaced by nested watersheds at multiple scales. I used data from the CEC's North American Environmental Atlas to map the major watersheds of North America using a color palette, text style, and overall aesthetic inspired by 1950s era political maps.
Public water should not be put up for sale, ever. I'm not confident about this coalition because words are important - their words sound like they are OK negotiating sales of public water - it sounds like covert greenwashing. We need degrowth of ecocide industries & watershed protection for ecological, environmental & human rights purposes - above all other purposes.
Commodifying public water is not in the best interests of the public.
