Why do you think the Colorado River is important? Not only do the people in these 5 states and Mexico depend on the Colorado River, the United States as a whole depends on the Colorado because it supports agriculture in many of the basin states. With the Colorado River’s water levels dropping rapidly, there is definite cause for concern as the whole country is at risk of losing a huge part of its agricultural system, countless people are at risk of losing a main source of water and numerous ecosystems depend on it to exist. |
What do you think we need to do to protect the Colorado River for future generations? |
