How do you create new water supplies? Today, billions of dollars are spent to move millions upon millions of gallons of water—for drinking, for industry, for irrigation. At present, irrigation consumers 60% of the water taken from North American streams; and water is now flowing where it has never gone before, in a system that will eventually rival that of the earth's own rivers! This film shows some of the things that are being done to divert water, and predicts what will happen to our dams and reservoirs in the future.
