New Mexico and Texas

Why has Texas filed a lawsuit against New Mexico with the U.S. Supreme Court? Do you think this lawsuit is justified - why or why not? 

They filed a lawsuit against New Mexico because apparently New Mexico is failing at "water delivery commitments under the 1938 Rio Grande Compact." I don't think this is a justified reason because New Mexico is a very dry place. and Texas is a very different place. and New Mexico has been in a drought and we need the water a little more in New Mexico. 

What, if anything, does this case tell us about the current importance of water scarcity as a source of conflict? What do you think can be done to avoid such conflicts on a global scale in the future?

it brings us aware of whats happening with our water. we so share the river with Texas. this is a major conflict. one reason is that if you look at America we all ready have a hard time sharing and when it comes to something big like water then phew this should be fun. i think we need to stop being greedy and come to a agreement that we both need water. and its one of our main resources. divide it equally and make sure both states have enough water to survive
