A Firm Bought Up Land in a Tiny Arizona Town—Then Sold Its Water to a Faraway SuburbThis story was originally published by the Guardian and is reproduced here as part of the Climate Desk collaboration.

On this particular night, when a car ahead of him sat at around 60 mph in a 70 mph zone, he signaled and passed it, slowing again to the speed limit after crossing back over the dotted…
