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.

open borders? 70 million gallons to fracking didn’t have a part? california and its false green policies.
Alaska? The northeast? There are plenty of states that have too much water.
but hey – the smelts are doing just fine
Maybe someone should make them look to their WEST! OCEAN = WATER
Some people wouldn’t know the truth if it bit them on the $#%&!@*! If we were having a drought (Which is impossible in a desert) then why are they draining reservoirs into the ocean?
Gov Moonbeam will fix everything as he always does. lmfao
Management by liberals eventually ends in disaster.
Oh well- who are they run by? Oh yes- liberals.
Perfect commentary on the political state of the state.
Kalifornia has listened to radical environmentalists for way too long. I’m glad it’s their problem and not mine. See ya.
