Jay Familglietti, NASA’s top water scientist, recently warned that California has only a year’s supply of water left in storage facilities and the backup groundwater is rapidly depleting. Despite this harrowing fact, California has no backup plan to address this crisis.
“California has no contingency plan for a persistent drought like this one (let alone a 20-plus-year mega-drought), except, apparently, staying in emergency mode and praying for rain,” stated Familglietti. “In short, we have no paddle to navigate this crisis.”
UPDATE: California Gov. Jerry Brown issues ineffectual, mandatory water restriction as one-third of our nation’s crops are threatened. See Page 3 for updates.

get some of these sky cranes to go bring back some chunks of Ice from Glaciers and drink it when it melts…
Haha
Everyone is so right, Sacramento needs to work on building desalination plants. Use the money earmarked for the bullet train. Scrap the bullet train, we don’t need it, we need water. Sacramento start thinking positively. Wakeup!
This is the funniest article I have seen in a few months lol WE’RE GONNA RUN OUT OF WATER!! Haha! Hilarious!
Oh because they drained all the supplies over a year ago its not their fault it must be global warming
Funny you say that, cause I’ve been peeing in the back yard for months now. And I’m thinking I’m saving water and money on the bill. I’m doing my part
They can make it rain in Abu Dhabi. Don’t see y they wouldn’t in cali
The first time I peed out side, I noticed a couple of days later that there was a huge patch of gr$#%&!@* missing, the roots were completely destroyed, and Googled it and said that our pee can do that to roots of gr$#%&!@* and plants. So I pee in the elsewhere in the back yard where I want to get rid of weeds.
Desalinization plants to fill the reservoirs back up, that will also fix the rising ocean levels caused by global warming. You can also power them with solar and wind energy at a cost of $100,000,000,000,000 with loans from China. That way you can keep watering your yards and washing cars you bunch of liberal idiots
Is this supposed to talk me out of Cali?
