Perhaps the “Quad Cities Region” should stop encouraging rapid growth of housing, farming and industry? Should also prohibit selling land and water rights to foreign investors/governments too! That would go a long way in conserving our precious waters.
Hotels, Motels and BnB’s should also be required to install timers on their shower lines like they do in many European places of lodging where showers cut off after 15-20 mins and some US RV parks and Campgrounds where showers are coin operated.
