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.

“Libtard” is so offensive … I prefer “Libiot”! 😉
Look at the bright side. They probably won’t fall into the ocean for another generation or two, but it could mean an end to a Libiot power base.
Good that state sucks anyway. Bunch of liberal idiots
Holy c**p, major of the responses on this post seem to be from people who would stand in a desert. …. which was once a lush forest and claim the cycle will change any day.
You are just happy to blame someone. Please, put aside your pride. Put aside your hate. ….. and think.
Yeah, I know. You’ll begin scoffing and probably not care…… and that’s a shame. Keep your head in the sand.
Come to Maryland, we have too much.
