Israel built the world's largest desalination plant on Earth for less than $1 billion. Califorrnia spent $30 billion (plus $10 billion Federal tax dollars) on non-existent high-speed rail, and another $25 billion on illegal aliens.
Don't expect the New York Nazi Times to tell you any of this.
Yep. Funny how the Left never promotes that. It’s all about control.
People should do a little study, and find out the percent of many farm products
California supplies the nation. You destroy California farming, and you’ll
Kill millions.
Another paid for hit piece from Yahoo news.. THE low price leader in paid for propaganda fake news!
Only a very small portion.
I’m amazed at how Californians can be amazed at running out of water after millions of people move to a state that’s about 1/3rd desert.
The illegal aliens probably don’t give a hoot about California as long as they get their water for drinking and bathing. The DC politicians who let them in don’t care about California either as long as they get re-elected. Most Californians don’t care about California either as long as they can have sex with whomever they want without any consequences. Therein lies the problem.
How is this different than what South Dakota and all of the damns in that state, do to the Missouri River?
Almonds and alfalfa, for Saudi horses. We need export tariffs.
How many gallons did they just empty into the Pacific?
You shouldn’t damn a dam when it’s just a dam!

Is it really "worsening droughts" or is it the ever-increasing population of illegals who are drawing on the water supply?

It’s much more about poor water management. We’re not building new water storage or more accurately we’re not adding net capacity as new ones replace old ones and the old ones are sold to land developers. Growing higher value crops that need a lot of water is also an issue. California has nearly 1000 miles of coastline but only a handful of desalination plants. Israel gets close to 50% of its drinking water from desalination. Here in CA they want us to drink recycled sewage.
“It’s TOO MUCH farming. Easily demonstrable to anyone with an IQ over 75.” “All Freepers would be OUTRAGED if this was happening in their state and backyard.
But they are OK with it in CA.”
Mariner, when you resort to insults, you have lost the debate. putting all Freepers in one basket and insulting them is so Clintonesque.
It’s easy to be glib when you’re completely ignorant of the subject.
“God forbid our farmers EXPORT something. /s”
So you guys are OK if corporate farmers destroy an ecosystem to export production?
“You destroy California farming, and you’ll
Kill millions.”
Bullshit.
“How is this different than what South Dakota and all of the damns in that state, do to the Missouri River?”
I don’t know that it is or is not.
California won’t allow any desalinization plants to be built.
