How has diverting the Colorado River changed the river itself?
dont send a file plz

Climate change will likely decrease the river’s flow by 5 to 20 percent in the next 40 years, says geoscientist Brad Udall, director of the University of Colorado Western Water Assessment. Less precipitation in the Rocky Mountains will yield less water to begin with. Droughts will last longer. Higher overall air temperatures will mean more water lost to evaporation. “You’re going to see earlier runoff and lower flows later in the year,” so water will be more scarce during the growing season, says Udall. Yea those file people are so anoyying

Brief summary: It changed the course of the river as well as the flow of the water in the river, not to mention the effects on nearby wildlife.
