Description |
In the American West, no other effect of climate disruption is as significant as how it endangers the region's already scarce snowpacks and water supply. With the inherent vulnerability of the dry West to even small changes in the snow-water cycle, these risks alone present ample reason for Westerners to take action to protect this special region. |
