Introduction: The living Colorado River -- Headwaters : straddling the Continental Divide -- Seedskadee and the Green River : river of the sage-grouse -- Bears Ears and the San Juan River : sacred land, sacred water -- The mighty Colorado : downstream through the Grand -- The Gila headwaters : pulse of a wild river -- The San Pedro River : deep water -- Greening the delta : US-Mexico collaboration -- Confluence : the Colorado's next hundred years.
"Across the West, ranchers, Native elders, scientists, and regular citizens are uniting under one flag: river keepers. They are working to restore habitat, stop pollution and diversions, and speak up for the might Colorado River's right to live. Through visual storytelling, the Living River: The Promise of the Mighty Colorado book and impact campaign shows we can have a resilient watershed if we change our relationship with water. Living River will be a voice to inform and influence stakeholders in the development of a new compact, one that embraces new ideas and technology, conserves and restores our western rivers for wildlife and recreation, and recalibrates water consumption to the Colorado River system."--From publisher description.
