On the brighter side,…
San Diego County Embraces Water-Use Efficiencies:
Per capita water use in the Water Authority’s service area has fallen from more than 200 gallons per person/day to less than 130 gpcd over the past 15 years. In 2020, total regional use of potable water was about 30 percent less than it was in 1990, even though the regional population grew by 35 percent.

NPR also said this 6 days ago. So, I'll take what they say with a grain of salt.

I will take my NPR over your Faux News

Btw, the study came from researchers at UCLA and Columbia, and published in a leading reputable journal.

Even a caveman can see we are in a drought. Are you so stupid to refuse to listen to the the science that quantifies magnitude of drought relative to climate record? Dont you even have an ounce of curiosity about the science of the world we live in?

Worst in 1200 years, and then?


So, the severe drought 1,200 years ago ended. Then what? I suppose if the drought ended, that must mean it was followed by significant wet years, no?

Then what? Societies end, civilizations disappear, everything dies. No water, no life. Think Anasazi.

Here is another study for you, published last week:

Johns Hopkins study finds lock downs didn’t work, should be ‘rejected out of hand’ in the future
https://padailypost.com/2022/02/07/johns-hopkins-study-finds...

Btw, 10 governors in Blue states just said in the last week that they are ending mask mandates. The CDC says to keep wearing masks. The WH agrees with the CDC. Who exactly is "following the science."

And the rub is, the Blue states are saying adults don't have to wear masks, but kids in school do. Kids are the ones least likely to get sick, but the most likely to suffer from wearing masks. So, why are the kids wearing masks? Because the leftest school unions have so much power.

And 70K elites just watched the super bowl in CA. And not one had a mask on (or even tried to lie about holding his breath). Yet all the common ppl have to mask up on the streets of LA.

This entire thing was made political by the Libs. The great thing is that America is so, so done with your Woke nonsense.

You “Johns Hopkins University study” is non-peer reviewed “working paper” written by a “Professor of Applied Economics,” who is also staff at the libertarian Cato Institute.

I have never sought medical care or advice from an economist. Have you?

The drought in western North America has had severe effect on baja,… totally a baja topic. The drought has been quite devastating to ranchers in baja.

I cannot fully explain the vehement reactions of right wingnuts (Dk, gnukid, shorty mcjizzy, etc.) to science news. It is quite illogical. But it does appear that the the source of their Pavlovian reactions is brainwashing by right wing media

What happened to you Boomers??

You posted a fake video with cut ups warning we shouldn't let 2M ppl cross the US border illegally. And asking why the govt. is requiring all US citizens to be vaxxed, but letting illegal aliens into the country without the same requirement?

On the Canadian trucker front, today Trudeau came very close to imposing Marshall law on truckers who are asking the govt. to stop mandating vaccines. Those truckers worked through the entire pandemic to provide goods to people. And on January 15th the govt. told them they must get vaxxed.

What the hell wrong with you ppl.

If vaccines are bad, it doesn't matter whether or not they worked during the pandemic. If they are good, the truckers should get the vaccine.

What's wrong with peopole who don't get the vaccine:light:

But back to the drought, it's real regardless of one's talking points.

The Canadian trucker protesters were a bunch of anti-vax whiners.
I am so tired of anti-vax and anti-mask whiners. What is wrong with such people? Bunch of big babies! Misguided twits!

So, if the drought is 1,200 years old and the Industrial Age is only 200 years old, what caused the climate change BEFORE man's carbon footprint? Doesn't this say human-caused climate change is all BS?
