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.

they already do!
such idiocy is mind boggling !! these idiot democrats spend Billions on illegals as well as Billions on a train nobody will use instead of building desalination plants up and down our coastline…..democrats make me sick.
Start making giant de-humidifiers, and pull the moisture out of the air….or truck the water from anyplace that floods. Better yet, screw the golf courses, they don’t have to be green…..
Keep hating Jehovah God. Curse Jesus the way you’ve been doing for years be as evil as you can possibly be. Perhaps that will make it rain. Build a golden calf and $#%&!@* it and praise Allah while you’re doing it. Maybe that will work. Tiny little drought in California oh my goodness it must be the end of the whole world!!! Better ask the experts at Berkeley! Hahahahahaha!
It could rain. I don’t know that but it’s happened before
> has nothing to do with dry weather cycles or state mis-management, its one company selling water.
Capitalism is going to provide us the solution.
Also no, we aren’t nearly as liberal as New York or M$#%&!@*achusetts. Please.
THAT’S WHAT LIBERALS BRING YOU.
You shouldn’t plant green gr$#%&!@* where there naturally ISN’T any. The sprinklers run all the time trying to water plants that are NOT indigenous to the area!!
what it is, is the removal of dams for the sake of fish who would normally swim upstream. But no one has ever heard of a fish ladder! We were saving water but now we just let it all flow back into the ocean for the sake of fish who otherwise would have swam on their own but just had to use a fish ladder. Environmentalists are so happy now. What they have done is to pave the way for the state to charge more for water that they will know say is at historically low levels. hey folks this is normal for CA.
