Lake Mead in Nevada is the largest reservoir in the United States with an estimated capacity of 28,945 acre-feet. Formed by the Hoover Dam, the lake is a vital component of the Southwest water ecosystem, serving water to millions of people in Arizona, California, and Nevada, as well as portions of Mexico.<\/p>\n

Withering drought in this part of the United States has created conditions which have resulted in the lowest Lake Mead water levels in history, since the reservoir was filled in the 1930s. Years of unrelenting drought and temperatures pushed higher by climate change are shrinking the lake dramatically.<\/p>\n
