"Michigan At Risk" takes a look at one of the most sensitive issues in our state: water and who owns it. The Great Lakes contain 23 percent of the world’s fresh water, a massive abundance. While parched and over- populated states such as California, Texas and Oklahoma are slowly running dry and desperately eyeing new sources of water. In 2003 when this documentary first aired, Michigan had virtually no laws controlling ownership and extraction of fresh water. That has now begun to change.
