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.

What does the picture of late summer 2011 look like? Lol
No, but they can take a photo of the same date of different years versus what is obviously photos taken in spring versus late summer.
Here’s a thought. Photo a and b were taken at different times of the year. One taken in spring after the snow caps melt and the other late summmer.
Here in America we have a problem of being wasteful… we throw away food, clothes,water etc. We even had people dumping water over our heads for charity… whether you believe in climate change or not… we need to be aware that resources may not last forever… practice conservation. Recycle and reuse things.

Yeah but global warming isn’t real, right? LoL
