In a series of case studies, Glantz and his colleagues analyzed the response of state and local governments to actual environmental events across the U.S., from a 12-ft. rise in the level of Utah's Great Salt Lake to the depletion of the aquifer that supplies groundwater to eight Great Plains states...
