You were correct. I changed it in the edit when I added the information.

Talk in this thread about desalinization, but two issues w that:
1. San Diego has the largest desalinization plant in the western hemisphere, but the cost to run it is high. Therefore San Diego has some of the highest water cost in the US.
Why is SD water so high? $400 / mo to water your lawn.
2. Even if you wanted to build your own desal plant (like Huntington Beach has been trying to), the environmentalists will shut it down.
Forget it...NIMBY...it's CA

1,200 years? How do they know, the Coahuila kept records?

Saw a report about it. All they talk about is making people reduce usage.
When the correct thing to do would be to build some more reservoirs. Having people use less is fine for a temporary fix but they have to capture more water runoff.
But they wont because the lakes would kill some microscopic worm or frog.
This mess is all their making. I hope they all die of thirst.

So, this is their worst drought in history & they'll be rationing water. They are also expecting extensive brown outs this summer & will be curtailing the use of electricity. The homeless have taken over their main cities. Yet with their huge sales tax revenue on gasoline, their state budget is running a multi million dollars surplus. Trying to connect the dots...why??

They should really build facilities to desalinate water. Just a thought though.

Californians: You want a solution to your damn problem? Build more dams to catch the runoff from the Sierra Nevadas.
Dumbasses.
Dumbasses.

Desal and nuclear, solve their water and power issues. But enviros run that state. They'd rather the poor starve.

How do they know there was a drought this bad 1200 years ago? Were the Navajo meticulous record keepers or something?

Well Hell.
Here in Louisiana we could load up railroad tankcars of delicious, wet ,Mississippi River water and ship train loads of it to California. Sell to them for $10/gallon with a $5 /gal handling charge.
All they can slurp up.

They should ramp up their global warming policies. Or just stop living in a fricking desert.

I'm guessing they analyze tree rings of toppled Giant Sequoias and Redwoods. Those trees are super old and tree ring analysis is pretty accepted science - you can identify all sorts of stuff, like for example, the Mt. Saint Helen's eruption.
