Less than 1 of all the earths water is readily available for human consumption. In the semiarid desert plains of the southwest United States where rainfall averages just 2 1 2 centimeters per month, tom maddock studies this scarce resource. Dr. Maddock the real problem that we have is that with increasing populations and shortages of water we are becoming very vulnerable. In the southwest, theres a very unique vulnerability here, simply because where do we get the water if there is no water . Narrator across the country in northern florida, the quantity of water isnt an issue. Rainfall averages an abundant 1 1 4 meters each year. Wendy graham and her colleagues evaluate and model the impacts of industrial and Agricultural Land use threatening the Worlds Largest collection of freshwater springs. Dr. Graham right now, the biggest question is how far we can stress the system and not push it past the point of no return. Narrator both researchers are working towards a Sustainable Future to
