Well I hope we stick to regional basin-specific solutions and "force"
people to adapt to the local environment they live in, but in the
story an interesting item:

"After 16 years of studies and fights, federal and state officials
concluded [a second dam on the Chattahoochee] was too costly, thanks
to inflation, increased land prices and the risk of lawsuits.
Environmentalists declared victory after years of warning that the
project would cost too much and destroy a scenic stretch of the river
known for trout fishing."

I guess "we" took a "let them drink cake" position...
