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.

All of the world’s water has the darter smelt. How about a pipeline from North Dakota to Texas? Call it Keystone.
Remember every time Californians wanted to build new dams the spoted owl types btched
Libs did botch against building more dams
stop the geo-engineering
Repubs can make it rain if people would vote for t
We would have had more dams for water but the libs botched about environmental damage
Libs are against that too
What’s the purpose of this plan?
Dring sea water from the Pacific. Stupid $#%&!@* liberals.
Shift that keystone XL Pipeline 2000 miles west and send water from Seattle to California. Problem solved.
