    Shorter showers won't save enough
  

*by J***A on Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2009*

Before reading this book, I had some familiarity with America's water crisis, but I was still surprised by its extent and urgency as presented by Robert Glennon. He covers all parts of the country, and all sectors of activity from residential to agricultural to a variety of industries. He also enlightens us on the sorry state of aquifers, water distribution, and water treatment. And he does all of this with an appreciation for the cross-cutting effects of water problems on a range of societal needs and individual behaviors.Glennon discusses an assortment of near-term and long-term solutions. The urgency of the problem leads him, in my opinion, to underemphasize some long-term efforts, particularly a dramatic expansion of desalination. Nonetheless, it's refreshing that the author presents some thoughtful solutions rather than just wringing his hands about the problems.Glennon's writing is well-researched, and numerous photos and maps help clarify the text. His style is enjoyable, which helps the reader get through the rather depressing message. A must-read for those who care about finding solutions to problems of national scope.

    Think before you drink
  

*by D***L on Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2009*

Glennon has a compelling writing style that makes me wish he had been my professor in college.  We think of water shortages as either very local or a western desert problem (why did they build there again?).  Glennon brings home that water supply-- access to safe reliable drinking water-- is a national issue, a national problem, and a national victim of short-sighted policy.  The healthier our rivers, the healthier our supply-- the more sustainable our use, the more cost-effective it will be.  So little of our planet is fresh water, and solutions such as desalination have such high economic and environmental costs (have YOU thought about what happens to the condensed salt that is removed?), we need to focus on how the re-frame our use of freshwater in a way that ensures the present and the future.  Glennon presents the issues and the solutions in a way that is accessible to everyone who needs water-- and those who cannot speak up for their own needs who live in the trees, the ground, and the streams around us.  This is a terrific follow on to his first book and a more useful read in the ways in which it addresses solutions.

    a fantastic way to understand the problem with suggestions for how we can each act
  

*by D***E on Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2015*

I read the Audible version of this book supplemented by the Kindle version where I put highlights and notes.  found this book after viewing the equally thought provoking documentary "Last Call at the Oasis".  The water crisis as described by Robert Glennon is complex.  The book does a good job of describing it and highlighting that in most cases, it isn't caused by a single problem but rather is a result of the interconnection of multiple causes (in other words, it looks at the entire system and how it is failing).  The solutions are equally thorny and again Robert provides a good overview of the pros and cons of various solutions to give a very balanced understanding of the issues.  It closes with a list of individual action items that we can each consider and (at least partially) act on so that we can help to start addressing the problem.
