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.

If the Central Valley doesn’t resemble a scene from Mad Max in about 5 years, I will be disappointed with this media hype.
Use it until it’s gone Leslie. That is what everyone else will be doing.
Water management at its best.
I look forward to CA being a depiction of Mad Max in the next 5 years. Couldn’t happen to a better place being the home of Pelosi, Boxer, etc.
So you believe bottled water is a human right? Is the prime rib down at Morton’s a right as well?
The only major problem I see here is that Northern California is attached to Southern California. Time for 51.
Not the same bridge
