California government made huge mistakes.
However, the bigger picture scenario (which neither Democrats nor most FReepers would like to acknowledge) is that there are more people living in that semi-arid, fire prone area than the area can reasonably support long term.
Flame away. :-)
They were not "mistakes."
They were a plan.
Some areas in California get less than five inches of rain a year. Some areas in North Carolina get close to 90 inches of rain a year. Yet 40 million people choose to live in a fire-prone area with limited water supplies. It’s simply a disaster waiting to happen.
Life is better in the South.
Seems like that is the case with Israel?
“there are more people living in that semi-arid, fire prone area than the area can reasonably support long term.”
Your general concern is legitimate—I would call it a zero defect situation.
There is just no room for error—so crazy environmental and DEI policies make failure certain.
Additional comment:
Desalination plants are an excellent long term mitigation strategy for California.
A hundred of them would be a lot cheaper than the railway to nowhere.
If homo sapiens are smart they can thrive in such areas for centuries to come.
If they are stupid they will perish.
Flame away. :-)
And why?
Just because I disagree with the premise?
