States Propose , Competing Plans to Help , Lake Mead Water Levels Recover.
'Newsweek' reports that states in the lower Colorado River
basin have proposed solutions as water levels at Lake Mead
and Lake Powell inch closer to dead pool status.
Water cuts have already been
implemented and increased in
severity in Arizona and Nevada in 2023.
The cuts have left western states scrambling to come up
with a solution that preserves their access to Colorado
River water while also aiding the reservoirs' recovery.
'Newsweek' reports that increased water use and water
evaporation from global warming have contributed to
the declining water levels amid a historic 20-year drought.
Despite torrential rains and a higher-than-normal
snowpack melt, experts say water use must
be cut for the reservoirs to recover. .
So far, seven states in the Colorado River
basin, including California, have proposed , water conservation plans.
The best way to avoid conflict
and ensure that we can put water
in the river right away is through
a voluntary approach, not putting
proposals that sidestep the Law
of the River and ignore California's
senior right and give no respect to that, JB Hamby, Colorado River Board of
California Chairman, via Associated Press.
'Newsweek' reports that up to 80% of water
from the Colorado River is used for
agricultural purposes, including in California.
According to University of California, Davis professor
Jay Lund, humans need to reduce their water use,
even at the cost of fallowing local agriculture. .
We might get lucky with the weather,
but the idea of the system recovering
is really hard unless you reduce
water use in that basin, Jay Lund, Professor University of California, Davis, via 'Newsweek'

California Holds Out on Agreement , to Cut Colorado River Water Use.
'The Guardian' reports that the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation previously called on states that rely on water from the Colorado River to come up with ideas to conserve 2 million to 4 million acre-feet of water.
The mid-August deadline proposed by the bureau lapsed, but some of those states have since reconvened and reached a consensus. .
'The Guardian' reports that six western states have agreed on a plan to dramatically cut use of Colorado River water.
However, California, which has the largest allocation of Colorado River water, is holding out.
State officials say they'll devise their own plan.
California remains focused on practical solutions that can be implemented now to protect volumes of water in storage without driving conflict and litigation, JB Hamby, chair of the Colorado River Board of California, via statement.
But Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming have decided to work together.
The states wish to raise water levels where reductions
would occur at Lake Mead and Lake Powell, effectively
creating a protective buffer for the reservoirs.
The model would also focus on water accounting
to ensure that water stored in Lake Mead by the
Lower Basin states is available for future use. .
The actions would reportedly result in
2 million acre-feet reductions in the
Lower Basin and smaller cuts in the Upper Basin.
'The Guardian' reports that an acre-foot of water is enough to supply two to three American households each year

Colorado Looks to , Artificial Intelligence , to Prevent Forest Fires.
Following the most destructive wildfire in Colorado's
history, the state is looking into adopting artificial
intelligence (AI) to detect threats before they occur.
Fox News reports that a proposal by
lawmakers would create a $2 million pilot program
to install cameras in high-risk locations.
An AI program developed by a private company
would analyze data from a 10-mile radius with the
aim of detecting anything that could start a blaze.
Fox News reports that the state's efforts
represent an ongoing push to equip
firefighters with new technology.
The combination of a historic drought
and record-smashing heatwaves has made
wildfires harder to fight in the American West.
Scientists warn that climate change-driven
temperature increases will continue to make
fires more frequent and destructive.
The proposed Colorado program is meant to give
first responders more time to put out a blaze
before it can grow and spread out of control. .

February 18, 1930.
Once believed to be the ninth planet,
Pluto was discovered at the Lowell Observatory
in Flagstaff, AZ, by astronomer Clyde W. Tombaugh.
Tombaugh discovered the
tiny dwarf planet using a new astronomic technique
of photographic plates combined with a blink microscope.
Pluto was given the Roman name for the
god of the underworld in Greek mythology
due to its surface temperature of -360Ā° F.
Nearly four billion miles away from the sun,
it takes Pluto approximately
248 years to complete one orbit. .
Pluto's only known moon, Charon,
has a diameter of a mere 737 miles.
In 2006, it was announced that Pluto would
no longer be considered a planet because its
orbit crosses into the orbit of planet Neptune.
While widely referred to as a dwarf planet, many argue that it should still be considered a planet.
