The worst drought in at least a decade has caused water levels in the Mississippi River to drop to historic lows, slowing down America's supply chain.
The mighty river supports a $12.6-billion shipping industry, along with tens of thousands of jobs, but now it's going dry in several sections.
As Global's Jennifer Johnson reports, shipping delays will mean even higher consumer costs.
