HOTM: Adapting to a Drier Planet
Water is our most vital resource, but climate change is making weather patterns and seasonal rainfall less predictable.

Sutter speaks with Peter Gleick, president emeritus of the Pacific Institute, and a leading global thinker on the relationship between water scarcity and violent conflict.
Later on, reporter Portia Crowe travels to Niger to see how investments in drip irrigation are helping farmers adapt to more volatile weather patterns.
