Good to see, of course, but Las Vegas really ain't the big problem. As many have noted, agricultural uses are the big gorilla. And in the less important sphere of urban water use reduction, there's a lot more water-fat to cut in southern California than in southern Nevada.
I recall crossing the international border into Southern California after spending a few weeks in the interior of Baja California, and being really struck by all the green lawns in the desert. Mexicans aren't into grass, culturally speaking. Just not their thing. Growing grass lawns in an arid climate is in fact pretty weird if one stops to think about it.
