On this day 9 years ago, we had rebuilt our little camp’s tent after the Christmas blizzard blew most of it down. I had just attached spikes to my boots and took a moment to warm up by the wood stove.

NEW: Many of the world’s vital sources of underground fresh water took millions of years to form and could require thousands of years to refill, as water mined from them largely ends up in the rising oceans.
Researchers warn: This drying is now nearly impossible to reverse “on human timescales.”

“Staggering” Water Loss Driven by Groundwater Mining Poses Global Threat
A new study finds that freshwater resources are rapidly disappearing, creating arid “mega” regions and causing sea levels to rise.

Brighten your day. Historian rediscovers a pre-Incan method of water storage, gets money to restore the existing structures, and the town he grew up in now has access to water 10 hours a day, up from 1/2 hour per day. The details are v. cool.

Water is vital to our lives, and a MASSIVE 89% CUT to the program that makes sure we can get it when we need it is at risk. The president’s FY26 budget will strip $2.4B from Clean & Drinking Water State Revolving Funds, the main source of federal dollars keeping your family’s water clean & running.
White House proposes $2.4B reduction for 2026 State Revolving Fund programs
The overall balance of EPA’s 2026 budget would witness a $4.2 billion reduction across the agency in 2026 in the White House’s proposal.
