• Resumen

  • A historic US-Mexico deal will see 130 billion liters of water infuse the river's parched delta, leaving an explosion of life in its wake. It's been decades since the Colorado River has reached the sea. On Mar 23, 2014, it will begin its journey back from the dead. In an ecological experiment unprecedented in US history, seven states and two countries have signed an agreement to unleash a huge pulse of water designed to bring the river's dwindling delta back to life.
