    Lake Mead Water Shortage

    Lake Mead, the largest reservoir in the U.S., is experiencing a severe water shortage due to prolonged drought, climate change, and overuse. As water levels decline, the ability of the Hoover Dam to generate hydropower is compromised. The dam, which provides electricity to millions in the American Southwest, relies on sufficient water flow to produce energy. With lower water levels, power generation is reduced, leading to potential energy shortages and increased costs. The decreasing water supply also intensifies competition for resources between states, impacting agriculture, drinking water, and electricity in a region heavily reliant on Lake Mead’s resources.
