One Water—an approach that views, manages, and values water as a single resource—offers a new outlook on watershed planning. Rather than operating in silos that separate drinking water, stormwater, and water reuse, water interests can work together to solve the difficulties arising out of climate change and increased demand. What obstacles stand in the way of widespread One Water adoption? How could this new approach allow Los Angeles to overcome its longstanding water challenges?
