NASA scientist warns that California only has one year of water left.

 
I love me some Mitt Romney, but I am never listening to him about anything tbh
Might want to copy his bracket next time :wink:

Mitt Romney, the former Massachusetts governor and 2012 Republican nominee for president, has never claimed to be an expert on basketball. But his March Madness bracket turned out to be one of the most accurate in the country, finishing in the 99.9th percentile.
 

Naw but just did 4 loads of laundry running hot water..

Felt like taking a bath so I filled up the tub with steaming hot water..

After that I brushed my teeth with my sonicare two times to make my teeth extra white with the water running

Guys and gals relax we are safe water will never ever run out

Heck yeah of course..
America is not a third world country hence we don't have to put up with third world country rules.. It's a luxury to be able to use water it will never ever run out...

Actually I am not trying to "troll" anyone... If anything proving to everyone that water will never run out in California.. That is my point not to be a troll. I'm trying to control and stop people from being over themselves with this water crisis that will never be
 
Seriously man, our water comes from reservoirs and goes out to the ocean after we use it. It's not like you have some Hogwarts ******** machine ran by elves making your water magically appear. Conserve your water consumption so the rest of us can have some Fam.

Southern California's water wholesaler is planning to wield its powerful hammer to force more urban conservation this year by cutting water deliveries.

Faced with dwindling regional reserves and a fourth year of drought, the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California is expected to vote next week to ration imported water that it supplies to 26 Southland water districts and cities, something the agency has done only twice before.

The cuts, which would take effect July 1, were in the works well before Gov. Jerry Brown imposed a 25% mandatory restriction on urban water use last week. But they are expected to provide a powerful incentive for local agencies to curb demand and help meet the governor's conservation goals.

Local agencies that need more water than the MWD allocation will be required to pay punitive surcharges of up to $2,960 an acre-foot for the extra deliveries.

For purchases well beyond the allocation, that would increase the price of fully treated MWD water by roughly four times.

The MWD board, made up of 37 representatives of the agency's member districts, will decide the size of the cutback, which could range from 10% to 20%, or 200,000 to 400,000 acre-feet less than MWD typically delivers. An acre-foot of water is enough to supply two households for one year.

The effects will vary from area to area. Cities that have already been conserving, such as Los Angeles, will probably feel fewer impacts. In areas that have been slow to conserve, water districts will have to strengthen restrictions and boost local rates to avoid financial penalties the MWD will impose on excess demand.

Metropolitan, which imports water from Northern California and the Colorado River, last rationed deliveries in 2009 and 2010, during the previous drought. Then, local districts responded so well that none had to buy high-priced water.

But because continuing conservation efforts have lowered water use in most parts of the urban Southland in recent years, districts may find it harder to stay within their allocations this time.

"The question is how much more can people squeeze out in conservation than they're already doing," said Dennis Cushman, assistant general manager of the San Diego County Water Authority.

The current drought is one of the most punishing in modern history. Irrigation deliveries have been slashed, forcing growers to idle more than 400,000 acres of cropland last year. Groundwater levels in some parts of the San Joaquin Valley have plunged to record lows as farmers drill more and deeper wells. Some small communities dependent on local sources have run out of water.
Yeah for us living in the big cities we may never run out of water for the next couple decades, but the rural communities are getting rekt by this drought

Publicly funded pensions and almonds need to go.

Almonds are a major export for the US. Spain alone buys 1billion a year. They will water those almond trees to the very end even if they have to import water from another state

Bucking bronco has me rolling over here. Hahaha...

Question about desalination...

Wouldn't the increase in technology allows for cheaper results?

I mean... Computers used to cost 5k ...

Is it wrong to think that initial high costs will push an inventor or scientist to try and fund a cheaper way because he's just tired of paying so much?

I mean... That's how stuff normally gets invented
