In the midst of all this darkness, I tried canyoning. It was great 🤩

I see two interesting things in this article.

“Scottsdale said it had to focus on conserving water for its own residents, and could no longer sell water to roughly 500 to 700 homes — or around 1,000 people. That meant the unincorporated swath of $500,000 stucco houses, mansions and horse ranches outside Scottsdale’s borders would have to fend for itself”

The newly built suburb of #RioVerde #Arizona (right outside #Scottsdale), has lost *all* access to water, after its water supplier (Scottsdale) shut off the taps due to the #drought. #climate nytimes.com/2023/01/16/us/ariz

Residents of #RioVerde Foothills outside #Scottsdale have tried for years to resolve the looming crisis to no avail as the deadline to stop their #water deliveries draws closer, forcing individual homeowners to find their own sources of water for #drinking, #bathing, #washing dishes or doing their #laundry.

As #ClimateChange makes the western United States hotter and drier, the looming crisis in Rio Verde Foothills exemplifies how cities and states could be forced to vie for a diminishing amount of the natural resource.

The rural community of about 2,200 homes in #unincorporated #Maricopa County does not have its own water system, and most residents get their water from private wells on their properties. But more than 500 #homeowners rely strictly on truck haulers to deliver water from a standpipe in Scottsdale. Another 200 whose wells are running dry periodically use the water haulers, as well, residents say.
