Lake Mead Falls To Just 27% Capacity

LAKE MEAD NATIONAL RECREATION AREA, NEVADA - JULY 28: A boat cruises in front of mineral-stained rocks at Cape Horn upstream of the Hoover Dam on July 28, 2022 in the Lake Mead National Recreation Area, Nevada. Last week, Lake Mead dropped to just 27 percent of its capacity, with the water level at its lowest since being filled in 1937 after the construction of the Hoover Dam as a result of a climate change-fueled megadrought coupled with increased water demands in the Southwestern United States. The drought has left a white "bathtub ring" of mineral deposits left by higher water levels on the rocks around the lake. (Photo by Ethan Miller/Getty Images)
