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.

We landed on the moon 50 years ago…im sure we could figure out a way to use that huge ocean to our advantage
Make no mistake they have the worst leadership in all of America, they elected an action movie actor as governor who ran the state $47 BILLION into the red, the largest single state deficit in U.S history, they then elected a complete s$#%&!@*bag as governor who they had elected before and been screwed by who encourages criminals from our southern border to come to California, who then also invade other states, CA spends on average between $2-$3 BILLION a year on criminals from south of our border who by the way flush toilets, wash clothes and cars, etc, in other words use water, they should be called the “Anti Freedom” state their laws have become so $#%&!@* like, and mark my words the Fed and California will now make all of US PAY FOR THEIR MISTAKES. Sound fair?!? Maybe if the Israeli citizen Diane Feinstein who has infiltrated our government sent less of Californians and Americans money to the welfare state of Israel with ZERO reason or return THEY could pay for THEIR mistakes. That said?!? F**k California.
Californians have long voted for policy makers who allowed this to happen. Soon there will be no trees to hug.
On the bright side, no water equals no lawns equals no $#%&!@* with a leaf blower
Put your dehumidifier outside? Boil then drink?
Hey at least I’m thinking. It worked on Tatooine!
LMAO@that fallacious comparison. You realize that if the water was disappearing at that rate, California would be bone dry by 2020 and would have been an ocean in 1995?
Fracking, nestle, and almond farms contribute things to society other than human waste. Next.
They can simply limit there self on how much water they use or else get water delivered from somewhere else.i see the old days coming soon.
Build pipeline from Canada/Alaska…
