With just these 2 cities that's a rise of 4.1 million more people drinking the water. More farms that need irrigation While many are trying to blame climate change, I blame both legal and illegal migration on the water shortage in the Southwest USA. One more sign that resources are finite and should be protected from illegal immigration. Politicians that don't understand this should be voted out. I'm not so sure you know what you're talking about OP. California's farmland is not irrigated from lake Mead. Maybe a bit of it near LA or sand Diego. But 95+ percent of it is irrigated from the Sierra Nevada snow melt. There's 1400 dams lining the Sierra Nevada collecting the snow melt and an aquaduct system that takes water all over the state. 10% of California water is used for household use. 5% for industrial. And 90% for farmland irrigation. California has invested 10s of Billions giving farmers equipment to prevent wasting water. As such the California uses the least amount of water and grows the most amount of food per acre than anywhere in the world. As much as I hate that state it isn't the cause of lake Mead drought. 50% of the water in lake Mead gets dumped in the ocean. And it wasn't always that way. Look elsewhere. And California grows shit for people all over the world. You've eaten something from California today ..assuming you actually eat fruits and vegetables and don't just eat potato chips and soda.

The Almond industry, among a select few, plant crops that are heavily water dependent. Gotta have that Almond milk ya know. Corporate farming has contrubuted to this crisis more than regular citizens. The only way this crisis is resolved is people and farms begin to move out of the Southwest, easing demand. The wheels of justice turn slowly, but grind exceedingly fine. |

Quoting: Storm2come No it gets changed to sewage and flushed into rivers and oceans after being treated so the real problem is no one is putting water back into the lake? didn't they think of that when they were taking the water out? or was it just a case of, we'll leave that part to chance? I don't think that when they built it 85 years ago that they had any idea how many people would need it, add a draught on to that and less snow pact melt and now we have a crises any plans to NOW put water back in it? or that idea still flying over their heads?

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 22935650 LOL, the colorado river is fine... it doesn't make it to the ocean anymore (or not year round anyway) ever since we started the big dams, etc... but thats not something that should be unexpected.... if we don't want to use dams anymore fine, but stop acting like its climate change. Water is NOT scarce... its the most abundant molecule on the planet and we'll never run out of it. |
