I hope this doesn’t occur in California, but our drop in fresh water springs (FL) has been exacerbated by allowing corporations to take that water for free and bottle to sell. Big business talks about Capitalism but they sure don’t practice it.
This lack of water is caused by climate chaos caused by the astronomical fossil carbon footprint of 8 billion people. Currently loving couples are adding a net gain of over 221,000 a day of cute little planned and wanted babies to the fossil carbon footprint of humans. Maybe we can use some of the spent farm land and the dried out remains of the Colorado River reservoirs to house this nearly 1/4 million per day output.

If only there were a way to reroute the water from flooding in Yellowstone, Illinois, and Kentucky…

All the dumba**es who water “lawns” (it’s the desert, morons) and golf courses caused most of this problem.

Get the Christian Right in Congress pass a law demanding more rain.

Maybe OPS “weather czar” can do something about it. Send up some space craft and push the clouds around or something.

I’m in Northern NV and we haven’t had any significant rain in a very long time. If I want a lawn this year, I’ll just have to paint the gravel green.

And if, the water gets too low, you can’t make elektrizity. And then it gets dark.

They built hundreds of thousands of homes in the desert that will need water.
