California's water future could be shaped by a $20 billion gamble with the controversial Delta Tunnel.
This episode dives deep into the high-stakes project with Camille von Kaenel, California Environment Reporter for Politico.
She unravels the complex plan to transport water from Northern to Southern California, detailing its immense cost, the decades-long permitting battles, and the stark divide between its proponents and opponents, , including Governor Gavin Newsom who champions it as a climate resiliency project as his term heads to an end.
With Southern California utilities facing budget holes from successful conservation and a dwindling Colorado River supply, the conversation explores the decisions ahead and whether to invest in the massive tunnel infrastructure or prioritize ambitious local water recycling projects.
Learn why this debate isn't just about water, but about politics, endangered species, and the very identity of California's communities.
