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.

More than that, they fill up little kid pools and empty them DAILY.They let their 5to 5 kids run the water hose ALL DAY, and then go inside without turning it off….just let it run down the street! I don’t know HOW many sprinkler caps I’ve had to cap off because the kids broke them just to play with the water. Makes me sick! That’s part of why I’m leaving here this week…or good!
Let California rot only criminals and gun activist will be the only ones that survive good luck liberal/left.
Too bad for them. Stop filling your pools, washing your expensive cars, watering your lawn and your golf courses and diverting water for a $#%&!@* minnow. This didn’t just happen yesterday.
OH NOOOO!!! DON’T let the Liberals in!! Only those who support the Texan way of life!! You’ll be so sorry! Look at what happened to Colorado! They used to be a good place to live once.
we will all be smoking dope before it is over. lol
Almonds are good
Ah, but the smelt are flourishing!
Saving water instead of dumping it into the ocean would be a good start.
No almonds no jobs… Real smart liberal thinking.
Sad..O:)
