How it reaches your house.
Starting from Water infrastructure supplies, we walked the supply graph hop by hop to the goods you buy and the companies you own. Each step is the engine’s reasoning, scored for confidence and cited where a source backs it.
First impact
Colorado River irrigation water allocation →Shortage riskImperial Irrigation District (IID)
IID depends on Colorado River water for irrigation, and its 18% share with very low substitutability makes a shortage directly constrain deliveries.
96% confidenceColorado River irrigation water allocation →Shortage riskFresh produce staples have a critical 0.92 dependency on irrigation water, so a severe shortage makes produce materially scarcer.
96% confidenceColorado River irrigation water allocation →Shortage riskCAP holds a 9% share of this allocation and has limited substitutes, so the water shortage reduces the supply it can deliver.
Hop 2
Arizona →Shortage riskColorado River irrigation water allocation
Arizona's severe water shortage directly constrains this water input, and the graph assigns it a substantial 20% supply share for the state.
94% confidenceCalifornia →Shortage riskSolution Mining Brine Water (Saskatchewan Potash)
California is the sole listed source for this water input, so a severe shortage there can directly tighten supply.
94% confidenceThin-film composite RO membranes (FilmTec polyamide) →Shortage riskHop 3
Mexico fresh horticultural imports →Shortage riskFresh produce staples are a critical downstream good with 0.88 dependency on Mexico fresh horticultural imports, so the import squeeze should make them scarcer.
95% confidenceSolution Mining Brine Water (Saskatchewan Potash) →Shortage riskThe graph assigns Saskatchewan a 100% share of this input, so the local water emergency directly tightens regional availability.
94% confidenceSodium Hypochlorite (Bleach) →Shortage risk
