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.

Thank you Governor Brown for not building any dams and reserviours which would have stored rainwater. Instead, 75 % of all rainwater drains to the sea and you waste millions on a stinking train that nobody wants. The California voters deserve what they get.
the governor and the feds have drained several lakes, why is no one concerned about that ?
Gov Brown is too busy creating an unnecessary fast train line instead of reservoirs
California government is allowing water bottling companies to bottle up California water and shipping it out of California. Stop the bottling companies from sending California water out of state.
