Mother Nature has no reverence for mankind.

I took a peek at the New Mexico Water Data groundwater dashboard. I can't say I'm smart enough to fully understand if trends are up or down. It's also specific to domestic wells.

@biznachio Man is a part of nature, we just keep trying to act like we're above it instead of going with it. It was inevitable it'd bite back.
The aquafer has been dropping for decades due to over use. But that's everywhere in America.
