After reading this I’m convinced more than ever we are doomed. We are still kicking the can down the road instead of doing the hard work and making the hard decisions. We as Americans are forfeiting our potential to lead the world through this change.

Paskus talks about all of it: rainfall, drought, snowpack, groundwater, forests, energy, and fires as they relate specifically to New Mexico. Climate change is here. Water wars are coming. The forest we had and have now will not be the forest of 2050.

New Mexico is the sixth fastest warming state. The GOP governorship of Martinez was a disaster for environmentalists. It presaged the Trump era. But it was eight years.

A great look into the recent history of New Mexico, it's policies and politics. Hopefully things can change for the better.
