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.

California is in trouble. All our rain storms go to Oregon & Washington. And then you say, there is no climate change. Extreme freezing winters in the East, drought in the West.
Get rid of your non paying illegals
Stop believing in global warming, and start believing God will take care of the earth. I did that and prayed for rain here in Texas, and we got a whole lot of it, and our water has come back up.
Too many thirsty illegals…..
Too expensive because California will not allow the price of water to rise. If they allowed the price to rise this would happen.
All they need is to stop the price controls
Lmao, the earth is 71% covered with water last I checked, if only we had the ability to remove the salt from water and make it drinkable…. Oh wait, we do
How exactly is this a fairy tale? http://www.mercurynews.com/science/ci_25859513/nations-largest-ocean-desalination-plant-goes-up-near
Just wondering, who is in line to take California?? there is always a plot for something when they want to get people out of an area,, sorta like a large scale “Bundi Ranch’ scenario…
Any day now, right Darryl?
