There are approximately 6 quadrillion gallons of water in the great lakes. For the folks in Rio Linda, that’s 6 million billion gallons, or a 6 followed by fifteen zeros.

You want to save water? Turn off Niagara Falls.

Do you know how thin the margin is for floating the barges?

And turning off Niagara Falls would shut down shipping as well.

1.5 million jobs in Michigan are connected to having the Great Lakes at a usable depth.

About 100,000 jobs are in bottled water.

You do the math.
