I prefer conflict avocados from Mexico.

It’s almost like we shouldn’t build huge cities in deserts

When Bear Grylls was in the desert with no water he was able to drink the liquid he squeezed out of a pile of elephant shite.
CA needs more elephants.

Taxes and WOKE is most important - not water. Now send us yours.

Louisiana sits at the southern point of the largest aquifer systems in the world. South of the flow of that aquifer is the Gulf of Mexico, which has absolutely no problems staying full of water.

They mismanaged their forests and water, but enjoy telling everyone else what to do with theirs.

West coast problems. Free government water so let's make farms in the desert. What could possibly go wrong?

The Sparta Aquifer supplies most of Northern Louisiana. Its only source of recharge is rainwater from a particular area of Webster Parish where the Sparta sand reaches the surface. The paper mill in West Monroe used to draw 10 million gallons a day from the Sparta Aquifer. After an intensive recycling effort they've reduced it to 5 million a day, which is still unsustainable. Multiply that by numerous other industries and we have a looming water shortage nobody's talking about.

California should just build desalination plants and power them with wind mills and solar panels.
Interrupts their views.

We live on a planet that is 97% water. We have the technology to make self driving cars but not desalinate water from the pacific ocean for the western US to use?
I feel no sympathy for lack of water

Good thing we’re going to global warming to melt the polar ice caps and flood their cities

Desalination plants are not allowed in California, they endanger a 3 cm inedible fish.

The live on the ocean. Desalinate the water and use it. Cut out some of the pork and use it for this. You know life sustaining stuff.
