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.

Jason Jett if only melting Ice Caps equated to more inland freshwater. Unfortunately they are not connected. Ice Caps = oceans. 😉 IMO there is no real shortage, just a water management issue allowing farmers to use unlimited amounts of water and collect reinbur$#%&!@*t checks for that water
