Absolutely devastating pictures! The West is experiencing the worst drought in our nation's history. I've never ever seen anything like this before.

Sounds like we need to give Ukraine another $40 billion. That'll fix things.
Posted on 5/19/22 at 7:56 am to JetDawg
Might wanna gtfo out of Cali as fast as you can, bro.
Posted on 5/19/22 at 7:56 am to JetDawg
California is sucking it dry.

Very sad, time to pray for rain.

White supremacy. Put a poc pansexual in charge and that bad boy will fill right up.

Sounds like Vegas is going to lose its sports franchises and get reclaimed by the desert.
Posted on 5/19/22 at 7:58 am to JetDawg
Haven’t they been finding bodies from 50 yo Vegas mob hits? ETA, or I’m guessing it’s just the bones.

That’s a strange way to describe a cycle of nature. Do you hate nature?
Posted on 5/19/22 at 8:00 am to JetDawg
Hmm...I was told voting Democrat would fix these things because Republicans don't believe in climate change.
Posted on 5/19/22 at 8:00 am to JetDawg
Not enough upstream rain to meet downstream electricity demand.
Sounds like poor planning.

Not really. You should have seen what it looked like before the damn. Natural beauty.
Posted on 5/19/22 at 8:02 am to JetDawg
obviously the solution is increasing the population via massive immigration
Posted on 5/19/22 at 8:05 am to JetDawg
Best solution I can think of is to completely cut off the supply to California and do not allow them to leave.
No great loss

There is a really easy solution. Nuclear power. But as a nation we are like 10 years behind in needed nuclear power plants because the climate change nuts don't like nuclear too and they drive policy.

The sad part is we probably will, and will just borrow more money from China to pay for it.

I always thought it would make sense to have a huge pipe from the Mississippi River across the country as a bit of an emergency system for any draught conditions. Could feed the 3-4 major reservoirs/ rivers along the way.
Posted on 5/19/22 at 8:06 am to JetDawg
Let's keep moving people out to desert climates.
Posted on 5/19/22 at 8:06 am to JetDawg
Is it the worst drought ever, or is it because more folks are taking the water?
