Gov. Jerry Brown has taken a dramatic, but dangerous, step by issuing an executive order to cut non-agricultural water usage by 25 percent. The unprecedented and problematic step will accomplish at once too little and too much. It will not seriously impact the shortage, but will simultaneously sour Californians on the need for a new approach to water use.
The seriousness of Californias water shortage is lost on no one. The states snowpack is a fraction of what it has been historically and ground water is being depleted at a rate well above replacement. The desolate images of Californias shrinking surface water storage sites confirm what the dire statistics cannot. Our water usage will never be the same. Its possible the Golden State is not actually experiencing a drought, but is instead transitioning to a new environmental epoch.

Cut the government benefits for illegal immigrants and you’ll get a twofer...they go home, you get a huge abundance of water back....
This is where the Gruberment gets ready to give it to us all good and hard over water prices...
De Salinization,.....NOW!
I’ll bet every damned person who lives in those mansions voted for Obummer.

The problem with pricing water is that indian tribes and the EPA will not pay. What federal judge will say that his masters can have the water for their endangered slugs only if they pay for it?
Agricultural water can be priced, though it would mean some reduction in California’s economic competitiveness.
Moonbeam invited them in and the Legislature is passing Laws that will give Illegal Invaders access to Section 8, Welfare and Food Stamps.
Things are just rosy in Californy...
They will never go home, this is home, that's why they have multiple anchor babies, and if they leave California due to drought and high water prices(though the liberal slimeballs will give them taxpayer funded assistance) they will just move to another state, Lord knows there are plenty of other liberal ones.
When the water runs out in CA, the liberals who killed CA will be moving
to a state near you. And bringing their state killing ideas with them.
This is why we so desperately need millions more immigrants, more illegals etc. If this means jacking up your rates and rationing, so be it.
The drought is one thing. The lack of water is due to the Democrat Party. It’s a Democrat Party fabricated crisis.
Look beyond the rainfall/snowfall statistics, and you find the water being dumped into the ocean for the behalf of the environmental division of the Democrat Party to save a smelt, a non native smelt at that, as well they use the excuse of saving the Salmon for other assaults on our aquifers.
We could have had the twelve year water supply the State was allegedly working towards by now, but the Democrats made damned sure we did not.
See CA prop 187, circa ‘94. Won big. They burned the ballots and declared the election illegal.
Thanks for taking the time to post. Very informative!
When they come to my place in the west valley on Phoenix, I’ll tell them to get off my rocks!
what does one expect from Guv Moonbeam?
De-salinization plants should have been his top priority when he took office and not a damn thing is being done.
Califoria has the entire Pacific Ocean at their feet and they are in drought.
This didn’t happen overnight either-& there’s is the entire Pacific Ocean at their feet.
Moonbeam is asleep at the switch & has been.
Many places overseas have waterless days, as in no tap water on Tuesday. The people learn to live with it.
In addition to de-salinization plants, Gov. Moonbeam should have built additional reservoirs to hold the run-off from normal, wet Winters and Springs. And not worried about so-called endangered smelt.
But of course, like most democraps, he’s in bed with the radical ecofreaks and their anti-business, anti-development, anti-people agenda.
Getting that Deja Vu feeling? Remember the rolling blackouts?
Liberalism at work.
