I’m shocked at how small desert is
Maybe because half of Arizona got turned into fucking cow "pastures" and alfalfa farms for some stupid reason.
For foreign governments to buy. That way they don't have to use their own water to grow it. Not even joking give it a Google.
Nothing wrong with that
Except for the part we're Arizona is running out of water for their residents so these farm owners can make a profit by effectively selling the water to another country in the form of food for cattle.
Ah capitalism.
