Red-faced Barbra Streisand to cut water usage after pictures emerge of her lush gardens amid California drought (2015)
Daily Mail ^ | 5/12/2015 | Ted Thornhill

Barbra Streisand appears to have been shamed into cutting her water usage after shocking aerial photographs showed her Malibu yard looking lush and green despite California experiencing its worst drought in history.

Residents across California have been demolishing pools, cutting back on showers and letting their lawns turn brown after experts estimated that there will be less than a year's worth of drinking water left in the state's reservoirs by the end of 2015.

But recent aerial photographs have shown that many stars are keeping their yards well watered with their green lawns contrasting sharply with the dusty brown landscape surrounding them.

Hmmm. If she can afford the outrageous cost of water in CA, where we are still paying a drought surcharge, even two years after the drought ended, isn’t she helping the situation by increasing the water company’s capital?

She can do want she wants as long as she’s not breaking the law.

One can boycott her concerts (if she still does them).

I'm no fan of Barbra, but even conservative friend Tom Selleck ran afoul of water conservation regs during that drought, and had to pay fines. I think he had an avocado grove or something like that on his property that required a lot of water.

In a sane free country these wealthy coastal dwellers could have created a co-op water desal plant. BUT... It’s California.

Streisand must think her Do You Know Who I am badge is bigger than everyone else is.
