Water is a resource that many of us take for granted. In this issue, we examine nutrient trading, a market-based model similar to that of the EPA's 1990 Acid Rain Cap and Trade program (pp. 10-12). Next month, look for our report on water conservation strategies. And be sure to go to the Critical Issues Series at the Spring National Meeting on Water Sustainability (New Orleans, LA; Tuesday, April 1 from 1:15 pm to 3:15pm). Hope to see you there.
