Colorado River water lawsuit; breast cancer research; social connections build happiness

On this episode of “Arizona Horizon,” Tom Buschatzke, Director at the Arizona Department of Water Resources, discussed why Arizona filed a motion to intervene in Nevada’s lawsuit regarding the distribution of Colorado River water. Arizona claims the current operating system failed to account for key terms of existing law.

We also heard from Dr. Kimberli Cox, Breast Surgery Specialist at HonorHealth, about changes to breast cancer treatments. October is breast cancer awareness month, and Dr. Cox provided ways to help reduce breast cancer deaths.

Finally, Katherine Nelson-Coffey, Associate Professor at ASU’s School of Social and Behavioral Sciences, discussed how social connections build happiness. Research shows that focusing on relationships can lead to a happier life.
