California as we know it was largely built by a vast marvel of engineering - two enormous water systems, each covering a distance over 700 and 400 miles, respectively - one that provides water for nearly 60% of the entire state’s population, and another that irrigates half of all its crops. This is how one state took on its own geography, and created the largest water transport system on Earth - and how the failures of that system today are putting the state at risk.
