He's a senior "moderate" lefty.
The day Sacramento politicos actually do something FOR the state and to do it so all legal residents benefit will be the day the Big One hits..
advice: Don’t hold your breath.. but hold onto your pocketbook.
Most civilizations in deserts built huge cisterns to store water for the dry times. Even the American Indians did this. So, is California digging big cisterns? No. They are spending billions on a bullet train nobody wants, to go between places nobody goes.
Can individuals collect rainwater? Or is that prohibited?
California needs more storage.
No no no we must spend the billions on the high speed rail system got to pay back the vote hustlers.
We can’t build more reservoirs, since they cause global warming.

That’s one possible conclusion. Me, I think Trump ended the drought.
The left in California quit building dams. To the contrary they want to destroy them to hell with the citizens
If they didn’t spend all their money on illegal aliens they’d be able to build some reservoirs.
“Drought and storms prove again California needs more storage”
very low priority. $100 billion dollar 19th century tech fake “bullet” trains to nowhere are a FAR more important priority to “progressives”/Democrats than life-giving water essential for food production, industry and sanitation.
Add tanker cars on the bullet train!

UN Agenda 21 ( Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
Had we done what we should have done decades ago, and provided more reservoirs – such as the long-delayed, off-stream Sites project on the west side of the upper Sacramento Valley – or built systems to recharge depleted underground aquifers, we could have retained some of those heavy flows on the Sacramento and other rivers this month. Even a tiny percentage would make a huge difference when drought once again hits.
I have wondered why we don't try to refill depleted aquifers using flood water. We could even adapt evil fracking technology to the task.
First Step is to stop automatically releasing water when resoviors get to 60% of capacity
It’s some rule from the 1930s when weather forecasting was inaccurate.
it’s idiotic that in the middle of a drought a resovior dumps millions of acre feet of water just in case
This all misses the point. In the Soviet Republic of California, our elected totalitarians solve the lack of infrastructure with Orwellian control of the populace. It is truly impossible to live free in this state.
As an example, the little confection used in 49 states to decorate cakes and cookies, dragees, are illegal in California.
Regular citizens in Colorado cannot collect rainwater since this would harm the environment. It won’t be long before Kalifornia institutes the same thing. The EnviroWackos call it rainwater ‘harvesting.’ Humans saving water in lakes and damns is not ‘natural.’ Every year at least 50% of I
