Normally I'd be skeptical of any investment in the western US. It's pretty much doomed to be unbearably hot and it's been at major risk of desertification for ages. The situation gets worse by the year and as biocapacity drops I question how much it will be able to sustainably support large populations in the decades ahead. It sounds like this could actually help though which is encouraging. I don't have much hope for the 92 threatened and endangered species being able to adapt quickly enough, but I can't see a problem with giving them a better chance and slowing the harm.
