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.

Kinda what happens when liberals run everything.
Where is Tom Cruise? He can help lol
It’s California’s fault that they have no fresh water. Their west coast is on the pacific ocean but they have not built any desalination plants. That’s just stupid. The cost to build one is nothing compared to the cost of not.
No more room in MI keep the liberals there we already have to many
Tax the rich and vote for more Democrat’s
Democrats rule California now they have no water
Eventually the voters will start to smarten up in California
How stupid to grow vegetables in a dessert, they take over 80% of Colorado river water, (They are not on the Colorado river), Stupid
Didn;t they let the water out to save some damn fish? I don’t feel for them!
They need to stop letting all the illegals in, and yes they actually released this fresh water to save another species…instead of saving the farmers that need it, FOR YOUR FOOD!
