"Water in Plain Sight proves that our water woes arent inevitable, and that the most sustainable path forward lies in partnering with nature rather than attempting to wrestle it into submission.Ben Goldfarb, author of Eager and Crossings
Water scarcity is on everyones mind. Long taken for granted, water availability has become dependent on economics, politics, and peoples food and lifestyle choices. But as anxiety mountsand even as a swath of California farmland has been left fallow, and extremist groups worldwide exploit the desperation of people losing livelihoods to desertificationmany are finding new routes to water security with key implications for food access, economic resilience, and climate change.
Water does not perish, nor does it require millions of years to form as do fossil fuels. However water is always on the move and we must learn to work with its natural movement. In this timely, important book, Judith D. Schwartz presents a refreshing perspective on water that transcends zero-sum thinking. By allying with the water cycle, we can revive lush, productive landscapes, like the river in rural Zimbabwe that now flows miles further than it has in living memory thanks to restorative grazing; the fruit-filled food forest in Tucson, Arizona, grown by harvesting urban wastewater; or the mini-oasis in West Texas nourished by dew.
Animated by stories from around the globe, Water In Plain Sight is an inspiring reminder that fixing the future of our drying planet involves understanding what makes natural systems thrive.
