80% of the water use in California is agriculture and commercial (including Nestle etc) - can you imagine the politician brave enough to restrict that
section? Loss of jobs, less food, less drinking water for the Starbucks crowd?
And profit? Of course profit! Didn't you all sign up for capitalism? |
