Gov Moonbeam, during his first term when there was also a long drought, “If it’s yellow, let it mellow.....if it’s brown, flush it down!”

Already doing this in Orange County....the water doesn’t go directly to tap water though.
The sewage is processed and purified, then pumped down into the local aquifer.
Don’t be squeamish about it....the water is so clean after the process, that they have to re-mineralize it before pumping it down....otherwise it would leach chemicals out of the concrete piping system and destroy it.

We have trillions of gallons of water on the coast of California, and these pervs think recycling toilet water is the answer.
You just can’t make up how dumb these fools are.

That’s good. Is Moonbeam doing anything about setting up desalinization plants?

The Salinas, Sacramento, Klamath and Columbia rivers drain tens of millions of gallons of fresh water into the Pacific every HOUR.
A pipeline could refill lakes and reservoirs daily and probably would not cost half of what the high speed train to no where is going to.

Those squeamish ones should be reminded that all water is re-cycled water, many, many times.

No....Moonbeam wants to spend $100+ BILLION on the great Brown Stain Train virtually no one will use.

Maybe we could all ship our brown water to California, in honor of Jerry Brown.

Thats good. Is Moonbeam doing anything about setting up desalinization plants? No. First, you have to set up the deStalinization plants.

Diverting water right at the ocean seems like a pretty good idea. It just gauls me to see Southern California not take responsibility for it’s own water needs.
Israel gets over half it’s fresh water from desalinization.
If that small nation can do it, our nation should be able to.
I live here in Southern California, and it’s embarrassing to look this stupid.
