ater scarcity is on everyone’s mind.
But as anxiety mounts — even as a
swath of California farmland has been left
fallow and extremist groups worldwide
exploit the desperation of people losing
livelihoods to desertification — many are
finding new routes to water security, with
key implications for food access, economic
resilience, and climate change.
In this timely, important book, Judith D.
Schwartz presents a refreshing perspective
on water that transcends zero-sum thinking.
By allying with the water cycle, we can revive
lush, productive landscapes. Like the river in
rural Zimbabwe that, thanks to restorative
grazing, now flows a kilometer further
than in living memory. Or the food forest
of oranges, pomegranates, and native fruit-
bearing plants in Tucson, grown through
harvesting urban wastewater. Or the mini-
oasis in West Texas nourished by dew.
Animated by stories from around the
globe, Vt/ater in Plain Sight is an inspiring
reminder that fixing the future of our dry-
ing planet involves understanding what
makes natural systems thrive.
