About this episode
Is Arizona really running out of water, or have we been asking the wrong questions?
This week on Another Money Show, Anthony and J.R. welcome Mark Burr, CEO of Primary Water Technologies, for a conversation that challenges one of the biggest assumptions facing the Southwest: water scarcity.
Mark shares an alternative perspective on Arizona's water future, discussing groundwater resources, infrastructure, desalination, data center growth, public policy, and the economic impact of water management decisions. The conversation explores how water availability affects everything from housing development and agriculture to technology investment and long-term financial planning.
Whether you agree or disagree with the conclusions, this episode raises important questions about resource management, population growth, and the future of the American Southwest.
Topics include:
• Arizona water policy and groundwater resources
• The Colorado River and future supply concerns
• Data centers and water consumption
• Desalination and emerging technologies
• Infrastructure, regulation, and development
• Economic implications for Arizona residents and businesses
If water is the story of the Southwest's future, this is a conversation worth hearing.
