As temperatures rise, less snowfall on Mt. Rainier means less run-off to the rivers which Tacoma relies on for one water source. Hot, dry summers (as we experienced last year, and are predicted to continue) means we will be more and more dependent on the South Tacoma Aquifer. The South Tacoma Economic Green Zone, submitted by the neighborhood council, has a plan for new possibilities, moving away from allowing heavily-polluting industry in the middle of our urban area and above the groundwater aquifer.
