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.

This isn’t new!!! 25 years ago it was Mellow is Yellow but Brown Goes Down! This is greedy, self indulgent people that think water is unlimited. EVERY house built in arid regions should be built with gray water systems and rain collection. Lawns should be illegal! Its the freakin desert! If it needs to be watered, you can’t have it!
I can’t say I feel sorry for them.
Is it cause the Kardasiians ???
We frikin hate them too!
Lies!!!
How arrogant to think that man can destroy what God himself will do, in his own time. There’s white men talking, huh? Sorry, Gary Tinman Johns and Casey. You know, I wuv your whiteness
I say someone should grab the pow wow drums and get to beating them lol
I was at the Oroville dam Friday. It’s 15% down from full.
And I love how they release all the water from the dams to help some fish that’s non-native instead of holding the water for later use
Btw, I think I’ve seen that meme before
Should had sold california back to mexico when we had the chance..think they still be interested? lol
