NPR’s Fresh Air interview with Terry Gross, 4.30.15: Fresno native Mark Arax has written about the war over water in his state for decades. Mr. Arax’s interview provides some valuable background on California’s water conflicts. However, AquAlliance has different views on some of his presentation.

TERRY GROSS: California’s drought and water crisis is creating a water war as corporate farms and orchards, small farmers, suburbs, cities and new real estate developments compete for water. My guest, Mark Arax, is writing a book about the water war. He covered the Central Valley for the LA Times and is the author of the books “West Of The West” and “The King Of California.”
