andra Postel's luncheon presentation





Don't miss Sandra Postel's luncheon presentation at this year's
Albert E. Utton Memorial Water Lecture:

Replenish: The Virtuous Cycle of Water and Prosperity

Friday, November 8 at the 64th Annual NM Water Conference
Pueblo of Pojoaque's Buffalo Thunder Resort
 




Sandra Postel opens her 2017 book, Replenish: The Virtuous Cycle of Water and Prosperity, by arguing that large dams, diversion canals, flood-control levees, and other feats of engineering have brought enormous prosperity to the world, but they have also broken the natural water cyclethe way natural systems move, store, and cleanse water. 

On Friday, November 8, as this year's Albert E. Utton Memorial Water Lecture speaker, Postel will address the luncheon audience at the 64th Annual New Mexico Water Conference to demonstrate how farmers, cities, conservationists, and engineers across the US and around the world are showing that with innovation and collaboration, we can re-shape 21st century water management to meet the challenges ahead.


Nothing is more important to life than water, and no one knows water better than Sandra Postel. "Replenish" is a wise, sobering, but ultimately hopeful book.

- Elizabeth Kolbert, author of The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History
