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.

Takes an enormous amount of energy to process the water. More than one grid can handle relative to the population
Easy fix
dry up & blow away,land of fruits & nuts…
Nestle’ and Monsanto are doing the draining,and the military for thier underground bases.
No they pandered to corporate profit interests. You notice, the politicians aren’t suggesting saving the millions of gallons of water used for fracking.
