For more than 20 years, Laura Paskus has written and produced stories about New Mexico’s rivers, including the Middle Rio Grande. Join us for a presentation and conversation about what she’s learned along the way — not just about climate change and water challenges, but about love, political courage, and connection.
2025 was a difficult and revealing year for New Mexico’s water. From growing Rio Grande Compact risk to groundwater overuse, aridification, and legislative inaction, the year clarified why sustained, informed water advocacy is essential to protect the state’s future.
