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.

Water desalination ! ! !
Cali needs to start building desalinization plants on a huge scale. NO WATER FROM THE GREAT LAKES TO CALIFORNIA!!!!!!!!!!
To many liberals, lots of complaining but no doing.
Brown the libtard is Governor.. What’s to expect???
I wish Nevada would stop the water flow going in that direction
Get rid of the meat and dairy industry there and turn them into self sustainable jobs.
Democrats run California!
Hey, if Israel can do it, surely the (well, maybe) Californians can desalinate.
Californians need to start to pray and ask for forgiveness, I’m talking God here. I know it’s not cool to talk about God, but He is the one who can change things instantly if He wants to. A water revival would be good, so why not a prayer revival. Prayer, plain and simple.
