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.

Ryan Michael Baldwin, im not sure how that is considered playing GOD. Please forgive me for you see im just a dumb$#%&!@* country boy, and around my farm if something needs water we give it water .
If your vehicle needs gas, you go to the gas station and get it don’t you? God dont supply the gas station .tankers bring it in .o yea and God helps those who help themselves. There are simple solutions to alot of our problems. I’ve always been a problem solver, but we can work out the small technicalities .right?
Andre King
That’s a great idea! But I was thinking on a much larger scale. What do you think about a WATER PIPELINE?
Maybe is the state put its foot down on nestle and wal mart from stealing Cali’s water this wouldn’t be an issue!!
I thought there was a ocean next to the. U bull$#%&!@*ing
Actually we are opening a desalination mega processing plant which will bring fresh water back in the environment
David Guynn, William Shatner wants to do just that and had mentioned starting a fund raiser for it.
Yeah. For a billion$, they can process enough water for 7% of San Diego County’s needs.
These stuck up, liberal snobs should stop diverting water to save a stupid fish. I don’t feel bad for California.
Lol
