We are running out of water – Drought drives Governor to consider: How many people is too many?

Drought is driving Gov. John Hickenlooper and senior state planners to ask how many people Colorado could sustain in the future.

While building new reservoirs will help ensure adequate water supplies along the semi-arid Front Range, Hickenlooper told participants at a conference Wednesday that an analysis of "carrying capacity" must be done.

"What is too many people? Eight million? Ten million? Twenty million?" Hickenlooper said in an interview after he made remarks at the conference. "You probably can have a lot more people if you have density."
