Wish somebody would show me how a drop of water hitting my property, absorbed or evaporated almost immediate has an effect on downstream supply. Now I have to collect that drop of water I couldn’t collect from the river.
That drop that absorbed was used by my plants. That drop that evaporated will soon be rain in Indonesia. Taking from the river is the exact same effect.
It’s all about control and 100 year old water rights.
New Mexico encourages rain water collection.
