We need to quit draining water, causing downstream floods, and start capturing water, and preserving ecosystems to help capture that water. A very different and needed perspective on water management. Also trees increase rainfall.

It is phenomenal what Indians in this village have accomplised over 45 years by planting water.
For millions of years, beavers have covered the northern hemisphere, building dams, slowing water, trapping topsoil, creating vast fertile wetlands, replenishing aquifers, reducing floods, providing fire breaks, increasing evaporation, literally teraforming, and changing the climate. While industrial agriculture squanders topsoil, beavers support a sustainable ecosystem.
Beavers are a brilliant at building dams, slowing water, moisturizing the soils, creating moist fire breaks and reducing temperatures. Sadly historically that often conflicts with human constructions.
