How the Colorado River Provides Life to the American Southwest

Watch “How the Colorado River Provides Life to the American Southwest,” a full-length nature & environment documentary published by PBS. This catalogue page includes the verified runtime, original publisher attribution and direct access through the official YouTube player.

Nature films connect close observation with larger environmental systems. Consider habitat, seasonal change, human activity and the limits of what a single location can demonstrate about a global ecological issue.

A useful way to approach the film is to begin with its central subject, then test each wider claim against the evidence and voices presented on screen.

The title, runtime, category and publisher attribution on this page come from the source catalogue. Specific claims made inside the film should be evaluated in their original context.
