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 people of California are that stupid to reelect their leaders and follow the failed political agenda of environmentialists wannabees, let them literally pound sand.
That’s what you get when you grow almond trees and grapes in the $#%&!@*ing desert.
Stop growing almonds and filling bottled water.
Got any photographs from 1911 or 1914? How about 1811 or 1814? I know, photography didn’t exist in the early 19th Century, but if you are really going to study trends, get some serious data.
