Blue Revolution: Unmaking America's Water Crisis
by Cynthia Barnett | Softcover, 296 pages | September 2012

Blue Revolution exposes the truth about the water crisis-driven by a tradition that has encouraged everyone, from homeowners to farmers to utilities, to tap more and more. But the book also offers much reason for hope. Reporting from across the country and around the globe, award-winning journalist Cynthia Barnett argues that the best solution is also the simplest and least expensive: a water ethic for America.

Avoiding past mistakes, living within our water means, and turning to “local water” as we do local foods are all key to this new, blue revolution.
