MinMon interview: Author Chris Wood discusses our impending water crisis

In his sixth book, “Dry Spring: The Coming Water Crisis of North America,” journalist and author Chris Wood weaves together the stories of people affected by droughts, floods, rising sea-levels and changing weather patterns from across the continent to argue that climate change, rapid development and overuse are threatening the future of our water supply.

He also highlights practical solutions like water recycling and run-off containment, as well as suggesting fundamental changes in the way we price and value water.

“Dry Spring” will be released by Raincoast Books on April 22 and it can be ordered through Amazon.com.
