Episode overview
A century ago, seven states divided the Colorado River based on faulty math. Now, as climate change shrinks the snowpack that feeds it, the river delivers a third less water than it once did, and the states can't agree who should cut back. Miles O’Brien meets farmers fallowing fields, negotiators at odds, and an accidental sea, all caught in the reckoning over America’s most overallocated river.
