It is all tied up in people.
I would be curious to see the calculations.
And since white people are just a small percentage of all people on the planet .... we need to find another way to blame white people./ s/ hahaha

In the case of the Colorado, the problem is due to water extraction chronically exceeding inflow. Inflow from tributaries is at normal levels. There is some increased evaporation due to the drier than normal air.

Lots of water in lakes.

True. It was implied but not explicitly stated, in my oceans, seas, and other rivers statement. I'm from New Mexico. Our biggest lake here probably wouldn't be a puddle in Ontario. Got lots of sand though, and unfortunately, lots of leftists.

now opting for the all encompassing term “Climate Change”. That way they can hedge their bets better

Climate change is so 2020. They've moved on to Climate Emergency now.

“There is as much air and water on this planet and in our atmosphere as there was on the day God created it.”

11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, on the seventeenth day of the second month—on that day all the springs of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. 12 And rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights.

Amen, bro. It’s almost like a cycle. The water comes down from the clouds and then it evaporates into clouds and falls down again and so on and so on and so on......

I had great-great grandparents that homesteaded in NM in the 20’s, and great-grandparents that were doing well in Montana who decided, out of family solidarity, to join them.

Family lore notes that NM is very good for growing sand (eventually most of the family packed it in for Oregon), and that it is very difficult to build a soddy using sand. The experience brings to mind the line from Monty Python’s “The Four Yorkshiremen”: “We were evicted from our hole in the ground.”

Unfortunately Oregon is even more infested with leftists of the California variety.

“The water comes down from the clouds “

Genesis says the water came from above the sky.

Someone is making holes in the riverbeds and draining out the water.

Add the Mekong River

During the last three years flows in the Mekong mainstream have dropped to their lowest levels in more than 60 years, with 2020 being the LMB’s driest year when rainfall was below normal levels in every month except October.

Semantics. It also says the springs of the earth burst forth meaning that water also came up out of the ground which is weird.

But, that reminds me that there is probly just as much water right under our feet in underground aquifers and whatnot that there is in our rivers and lakes.

That's where we get our water. We have a well in our back yard. And it's not even all that deep. 50 or 60 feet.

Even with this so-called drought we are supposedly in here in Northern Commiefornia, our water table is still at 98%. It fluctuates but not by very much.

“Semantics.”

—————————Water did not come sky-———————

7 So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so.

8 God called the vault “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.

I remember reading, years ago, of a proposed plan to pull icebergs from Antarctica to Arabia for fresh water supplies.

Still waiting.

Yep. God is preparing those regions for a huge influx of precipitation.
