'It's Scary': 40 Million People Who Rely on Lake Mead See Shocking Drop in Water Levels

- An epic drought in the West has depleted the country's largest reservoir of two-thirds of its water. About 40 million people rely on Lake Mead, which is now at its lowest water level since the lake was initially filled during the construction of the Hoover Dam in the 1930s.

I'll share a little secret for 40 million people: There's not a whole lot of water in the desert. Maybe it wasn't such a great idea building big cities in the middle of a desert, a desert that has been there long before "climate change"
But my golf course.. … how will my golf course survive I. The desert 🏜
Bingo!!!!!!
I'm Dubai they took a cluster of drones and used electricity to make water vapor turn into larger droplets to form clouds that began to rain. They did this with electricity and not cloud seeding. Why are we not talking about this or using this here in this situation. Hmm likely because this is being done by design. Ask yourself.. who controls these districts and the water rights??? Then you will get your answer.
@@Vitality_Vibes_sups ... and the next state over will be crying the blues because someone stole their rain right out of the sky!
@@Vitality_Vibes_sups ,
Follow the money....
Who’s bright idea was it to turn the desert into farm land and then allow unlimited population growth???.
Americans
Developers $$$$$$$
when farmers drain a MASSIVE lake in the central valley Called "Tulare Lake" cotton farmers Stole our future
🤔
Building Contractors of course. Money is more important than regulation and common sense.
"The southwest is one of the most heavily populated areas in the United States". Well, it hasn't always been that way. It wasn't until developers decided to build neighborhoods in what was previously known as "the Desert Southwest" that this water problem really exploded. How did they not see what was coming? You cannot keep diverting a river and expect that the levels won't go down. But people just GOT TO LIVE in the desert, where there is no water. It's hard for me to sympathize...after all, it IS a desert.
These residents will do what native Americans have been doing in poor areas. Filling up drums of water from fill up stations. When they get tired of this they will move out of there
Humanity has become disconnected from the very basic fundamentals of survival. We go to a building and collect all our food when we're hungry. Where the food came from, most dont know. When we're thirsty, we turn on the tap, where the water comes from, maybe the towns facility, but still, most don't really know, how much water is left? Is it clean?
We think we're above nature, until nature begins correcting the systems we've thrown out of wack.
You possess all of the compassion and empathy of a dead tree stump. There's a bigger picture here, one that involves more than just people living in a desert.
Bingo, DUH!!!!!
Main problem is reduced rain and snow fall up north is the biggest reason why the lake is down. They are also keeping Lake Powell full, the next retention lake north, refusing to release water to replenish Lake Mead.
We get very little rain in Vegas, but it has be worse than normal. Several months back we went 240 days between rain fall and when it finally rained it was for 15 minutes! Then we went several more months without rain again.
I was born and have lived all my 54 years here. 1st drought I saw in the 70s I thought was bad. But from that drought it instilled "drought water saving habits" that I don't even think about, just do.
Example, my partner is from Florida, never a drought, he's still learning desert living. We're in the kitchen, he washed something, left the faucet on full and walked away from the sink..... I started TWITCHING
He turned around, leaned on the counter, talking to me...... I'm going into CONVULSIONS. What's wrong, he says. I point at the water and say are you done with that? No, need to clean this. I practically SCREAMED, Turn of the water if your hands aren't under it or if your filling a pan.
I had to go lay down, it was too much for my nerves... I'm serious
Its a desert. Surprise surprise.
The water is mostly from the snow peaks of the Rockies, and has nothing to do with if this specific place is a desert.
You mean disert.
I drove through the region a few years back, you go through desert areas then suddenly you pass an emerald green golf course. The water use must be unbelievable to maintain that level of green (in a desert).
They need a one billion dollar grant to help them understand draught?
Line pockets of politicians
James Smith totally agree
@@valeriejashi4231 We are just crazy conspiracy nuts though.
They'll use it to line their own pockets, and then cut and run when the inevitable happens.
I could understand it for half that amount.
40 million people living in an area that might be able to support maybe a 1/4 of that sustainably. Perhaps ever more people and development is not the path to happiness or a clean environment.
Look up John Wesley Powell on Wikipedia and see what he said about water use in that area.
@@dominusetdeus060644
Better yet, read “the exploration of the Colorado and its canyons”
That’s about 10 percent of the total US population which is absolutely nuts for that many people to be in one area.
@@at1970 thanks for the info I will check it out
@@DarkArmedDaddy1
The US went from 220 million in 1980 to >330 million today. Most of that in the west. There are simply not enough resources, especially water, to support that kind of growth. And of coarse the whole lifestyle of having open space, nature and the freedom to enjoy it has been destroyed at the same time. More is not always better.
It’s not just the climate. It’s irresponsible growth .
Got about 2 years left ..
99.9% is irresponsible growth, and irresponsible stewardship of the resource.
@@brianpencall4882 you just said the same thing the idiot before you did.
@@brianpencall4882 So you want government to make laws to restrict private property? It's okay they already do, but the owners of the raw land finance the politicians.
Stop building houses here in Vegas? Water district needs to penalize people and businesses that let water be wasted. I see rivers of water from SPRINKLERS, all the time!
"There is no lack of water here unless you try to establish a city where no city should be.” - Edward Abbey
They forgot to mention mismanagement and constant increase in demand.
Quit building houses in the desert and you water problems will be managed.
Then tell your neighbors to stop moving here lmao
Simplistic and wrong. Agricultural irrigation uses 80% of the developed supply, much of it low value pasture and field crops. Water will transfer from these uses to urban uses.
Actually it’s mostly caused by thirsty almond tree farms in California
@@guyw99 Actually it’s not because Colorado River water doesn’t serve ANY almond orchards in CA.
AMEN!!!!
Grass don’t grow in the desert, Before the Hoover dam Lake Meade didn’t exist. loose the grass and plant a nice cactus garden.
Grass lawns popular are because people tried to act rich like Carnegie. He wanted to be reminded of of scotland so he set them up in his mansion.
It’s not just the grass. Humans should not be living in the desert in proportions of mega populations. It’s unsustainable. Also farming land in the desert is another disaster. 80% water allocation on top of all these mindless residents thinking there is an unlimited tap. Governments paid off by developers to keep building these homes. It’s nuts. The well and reservoirs will never ever be at capacities of 2000. Sell and get out of there
@@davidcarlin3850 speaking of nuts, most of the water goes up to N cali for irrigation of crops...
@@davidcarlin3850 I don't believe its climate change more like some climates are just not meant to be touched. But your right, the grass to me is just the start but there there, what are you going to do. Its stupid because where I live on the North east we may have a bad season of drought and low water levels that resolves itself, and forest fires are out within hours maybe less than a week at worse and that hasn't happened knock on wood in over 20 years.
Yuck!
There are so many other desert plants that allow you to enjoy your property.
I will never understand cactus!
It's like, hey, buy this expensive piece of real estate but don't step there or there or there or there or there!
Hey let's play some football on my beautiful cactus lawn.
Come to think of it, those are tough people 🤣🤣🤣
Despite the drought, people continue moving in. Why?
Correction, they are moving out of Kaliforistan.
Nuts. This is the single resource that will make real estate prices worthless when people start moving out. How would you like to be told you just bought a new home but it’s likely to be no water in a few years ? Nuts
@@davidcarlin3850 At some point within the next several years, there's likely to be a mass exodus out of the southwest. Selling their old home is going to be the last thing on many people's minds.
Raider fans
because it not the state it the whole world causing climate change so no point
LMAO!!! Welcome to the Southwest! The little things that you took for granted, is the things you will fight for/over!
Oh no, water wars in the west have been going strong since the first movie in Hollywood!
🤣🤣
@@cjjenson8212 😂😂
WOW! It ain’t rocket science.
Get rid of the lawns, golf courses and manmade or filled ponds, water parks and water shows on the strip. Wasteful use of water that needs to be used for drinking.
Nevada gets 2% of the water in Lake Mead. Cali gets 60% ,Arizona 37%.....Vegas recycles 90% of what they use and sends it back to the lake, so they are far from being wasteful i doubt any city with that population has that high of a recycle return......as far as water shows on the strip and further north into downtown, most have their own private well. The west has been in a severe drought for the last 21 years....this is not going away with simple solutions mother nature will play a big role in how this turns out...
@@1202burton private wells? Really? No such thing as private wells. Water be.belongs to everyone when it comes to drinking g vs water shows on the strip. So you are saying private rich people can do whatever they want?
@@enarandyr9122 What planet are you from again that you are just now seeing the truth of wealth privilege. Yeah the wealthy get off the hook where peons like us would get fines, arrests, jail time etc.
Exactly and put all the fallow farmland in the east back into agriculture. It rains there. The environment wins because it will keep it from unchecked urban sprawl. Stop watering the dessert. I realize California irrigated is some of the world's most productive but the 4,5,6, and more feet of rich top soil in the Midwest accomplishes much the same with little or no irrigation.
@@enarandyr9122 If you drill a well on your property, that's your private well... you can do as you wish with your water. At least 10 casinos have their own wells as do a lot of farm/ranches to the north.. None of these wells have anything to do with the Lake water level, they're all paid for and maintained by the property owners it's nothing new or sinister.Shows on the strip,green lawns and golf courses are not the problem and easily sustainable with the inflow of the Colorado, it's the agriculture in California & Arizona that uses the bulk of the water..
Saw this coming 30 years ago when I moved the hell out of California. Couldn't afford the house's price then and realized that it was not sustainable. Developers sucked everything they could out of the desert. Now this is what you have left a desert!
this was in Nevada. why people alway talk about California when it comes to water drought.? Isn't some places around the world are getting less water. Look at mississippi river. blame the world for climate change stop blaming the states smarty.
This is in Nevada you dumbass shut up
@@smhmyhead2215 You're an idiot so what you don't think California uses this water too. You must have graduated trump University!
This guy is more concerned about his jet ski than the fact that drinking water is more important.
And thats the average thought of mind. As long as my luxury isnt affected, i dont care.
@@vossejongk I'm happy with a fishing pole. I don't need a jet ski or boat.
Keep building more water thirsty households and some Golf courses for the wealthies‘ past-time.
You all knew this was going to happen 25 years ago, and did a lousy job of preparing for it. Wait till you don't have enough water to flush your toilets. That should be cute.
A little to late gluttoners. You can’t drink money 💰
Well said 👏
The culture that thinks they are above and apart from nature will eventually find out the truth.
The US is starting to learn that.
Poetic.
Our So. Utah mountains are invaded every weekend by people from Vegas wanting out of the heat. Why someone would choose to live in the desert puzzles me.
You say that like Utah isn't a dessert lol
@@tabithavanderpool418 actually my cabins elevation is 10,005' surrounded by green grass up to a cows belly. Not sure how that qualifies as a desert?
@@gladegoodrich2297 elevation and plants don't define a dessert. Rainfall per year does. Utah is defined as a desert you can look it up.
Why is this a surprise? Can’t take without giving back
Meanwhile in Tucson: “Let’s build more golf resorts and the heck with solar power.”
Golf courses are minor relative to agriculture.
Can’t get your jet ski to the beech that is serious!
Yeah the waste water beach of lake mead .....Nasty
It's the desert that has a tremendous amount of population now so much building is going on what do you expect
What do they not know about the drought that a billion dollars will tell them?

My beautiful lake I grew up with. Almost dead no one cares about her now. They have given up on her cause of her water level
But her beauty is still there.

USA has water on three coasts
All America has to do is what they've done in the Middle East and around the rest of the world.
Build cogeneration desalination/electrical plants and it will have all the water and electricity it will ever need.
I'm sure Nevada really appreciates that advice and is right this minute building a plant on its coast.
I use to live in Vegas back in 92 - 98 and I can tell you with certainty that Lake Mead was never this low... Hell, I remember one morning, staying up all night and driving to Lake Mead only to be met with what I thought were dogs, but in fact were coyotes by the marina.
True. The top face of Hoover Dam was actually US highway 93 connecting Las Vegas and Kingsman Arizona. I visited Hoover Dam via this highway in summers 1994 and 1997. The water was full up near the top. I would never have thought that the water could be this low. Something very wrong has occured.
@@hoangkybactien7207 exactly what I thought didn't know Lake Mead could evaporate.
@Rafi Eitan pretty scary and awesome to see coyotes.
@Rafi Eitan I heard that too they use one to.lure in a dog. Oh, you live in a great area. How's the casinos been doing? Yeah, I lived near Pecos-Mcleod st nearer boulder station near Boulder Hwy
@Rafi Eitan haha ikr sketchy area I uae to live in but rent was cheap. Totally found the Apts by accident too. Remember the Kmart and Furr's cafeteria?
Gotta start using reclaimed water for irrigation and watering gardens. We've been using it in Florida for years. Works great.
Only because you get hurricanes amount of water lol
@@npc1238 Well ... there is that!
No ... only because we flush our toilets and wash our clothes ... that kind of reclaimed water.
Arizona uses reclaimed water for golf courses.
how many people lived in these areas in the 1930's versus now. they never thought it would get this bad...
People of the 1930s KNEW it was a DESERT...today, people think they can build & live ANYWHERE. Arrogance is behind this problem...human arrogance.
@@donnaswan347 yup, and that's why we have this housing problem as well as the water issues... arrogant people and their stupid ideas!
Quit watering the golf courses and you would have water to spare!
Did you catch the part about California dumping their treated water into the Pacific? Maybe that treated water could be used for the agriculture farms. Since the ocean levels are rising.
Like a grey water system.
But the people of CA are too good to drink treated gray water as the rest country does.
@ james Evans
Lol
California is working on being the first failed state.
YES, John, and I also caught the rest of the sentence which said they are looking to copy Nevada and not do that.... listen carefully pls.
@@judyscheiber3661 thanks for making my point
Governments love the current climate "crisis" since it absolves them of any responsibility for water usage and growth policies. It also gives them the opportunity to create new revenue streams based on carbon taxes and fees that will presumably "fix" the climate.
💯 and enrich themselves even more and have more sheeple join their CommieRatic power cult.
If you let their foot in that door they will lasso the sun to prove you wrong. Our kids got a hell of a fight coming if you don't fight for your liberty now. And we all know you will let them in that door because this generation is as moral and strong as the end of the Roman Empire. And that's all gone now.

Can't sell something that is worthless
This is why I rent bc I saw this coming
@@thee_morpheus A wise choice 👌
Quit watering grass, quit growing food for everyone in the world for starters.
And put in a semi-permanent ban on new home construction and put restrictive new residence laws in place to discourage people from moving there.
Thank goodness that rain water has been being collected and stored in a few underground aquifers, from what I understand. This is absolutely horrible though. I feel bad for everyone affected, especially animals who end up suffering. I say expect animals to start frequenting more neighborhoods looking for water and resources. Please stay safe everyone!
The Ogallala Aquifer in America is one of the largest in the world and it is at risk of over-extraction and pollution. Since 1950, agricultural irrigation has reduced the saturated volume of the aquifer by an estimated 9%. Once depleted, the aquifer will take over 6,000 years to replenish naturally through rainfall. It's bigger than most think and draining quickly. California sinks close a foot per year in the valley from the water removal,
Such a shame, give it a couple more years and that region will turn into a desert.
Why don’t they point out the major reason for the water shortage , over developing a desert land that is naturally short on water supply !
How about not living in a desert
Tell me how it's possible to have no water in a lake in the middle of the desert? It don't make a lick of sense!
For every gallon of water normally flowing in the Colorado River, there are 2.5 gallons of "water rights" issued in 7 states and two countries. The states above Lake Mead and Mexico below are just starting to take the water they own. It is like the old saying "It is going to get far worse before it starts to get better." If it ever starts to get better. Ever look at the "Drought Map"? The major "drought" regions are the desert areas that get less the 8 inches of rain a year. How much water ever flowed off those lands? Virtually none. That does not create a drought. The high mountain areas where the water source for the Colorado River (and Little Colorado, Gila River, Salt River etc, etc) really are not that bad for drought conditions.
Surly long term converting salt water to fresh water and pumping it into the lake would be a better spend of cash there asking for.
I blame my trade school roommate, dude literally basically daily, would take 1-3 hour showers and workout using the steam… in my head I was always like wtf bro… water was free for him, he didn’t care I’m sure….
As irresponsible as that is, the individual consumer only makes up for about 10% of water usage. Most water use/waste is from corporations
@@tabithavanderpool418 lol worddd
@Tacticool Mustache loll
@Hey-Okayyy TV the first quarter of this sentence made sense, the rest didn’t
Water is about to become a luxury and even the rich will not partake!
How it is it scary? Been doing this for 20 years, like a slow boil of frogs...
What is the population in the areas that depend on that water compared to 20 years ago?
Its scary that 40 million people live in a desert region that gets next to no rain naturally. >>>DESERT
we never look after our world and have been wasting a lot of water for years, what do we complain ?
Simple conserve water. Grass will go dormant it will come back. Quit wasting water
We've all seen it. Every city has those automatic sprinklers all up and down every street and along freeways, and every single night, they spray not only the plants and grass, but also half of the street and freeway as well. (Don't forget to water the sidewalks!) And when these sprinklers break, big geysers of water shoot up 30 feet into the air every night. While citizens are asked to cut back on water use and farmers are completely cut off from the water supply, there is absolutely no accountability for cities to adjust and fix their broken sprinkler systems that waste huge amounts of water every single night.
Recycling the sea . from sea to a drink water and the salt.
I like poo holes
Maybe they should get on the national water grid. Remember that crowing you did on a particular state back in February, Cali?
There is no national water grid.
The 50 Las Vegas golf courses aren't returning water to Lake Mead. Neither is the water from the dozens of water fountains that evaporates or the hundreds of swimming pools. Now, stop it
Why are they not considering running separate plumbing for grey water in every county town and city that’s effected collection of the water in water pipes and cistern’s and flowing a large portion back into the reservoirs?
The same blue pipes that bring city water in can collect it and bring it out and even set up rain water collection for the future. All house holds could use gray water for every thing that they use drinking water for!
It’s really a no brainer.
Every single family residence uses a average of fifty gallons of water a day collection of gray water thirty eight gallons goes back into the water system!
Cause there just flat out ignorant and we don’t have any intelligent people like yourself in charge
Silly question i know! But if they can re purpose the water ,then how come they aint got non? And why have they done nothing for 20 years.
If it was a oil pipe line then no problem huh!
It’s not just indoor usage. There’s vast amounts of evaporation loss from the outdoor use (agriculture is important… golf courses not so much, but they effect ecosystems greatly). Every power source besides hydro/wind/solar use steam to generate electricity…. There’s more and more people and potable water is a humanitarian right, which also drives more ag, industry, etc… the industries have had financial sway politically, and actively resisted any advancements until recently. Only because it’s been fought for (tooth and nail by the green, snowflake, hippies) and developed since the seventies has the tech become financially viable for industry to even consider the transition to green energy. Then you have a good 1/3 - 7/16 of the population that refuses to admit there’s climate change / believe they will be “saved” and will actively do damage to laugh at how upset people get that they are killing the potential for humanity to survive on our only home in the desolate and inhabitable galaxy. It’s a complicated cluster 😵💫, and we’re either gonna get rocked decently or our colon is going to get shredded, something is and will happen, but we can still choose how difficult the next century or two will be 😅👍
1 billion to understand the problem? And their's how many people coming into the country illegally now? Supply and demand isn't hard to understand
Interestingly, despite the increase in population, water usage has actually gone down.
HAHAHAHAHA this is the dumbest comment on the internet today.
It’s because you turned from God, ask him to help but you won’t so your sins have brought the curse of God on you
Yes the cause of climate change, as they call it. I call it the the sin effect or the non repentance effect
Just like the starving African children eh?
curse of God... oohhh I remember now, the spirit who loves us but has a history of wiping out millions? sound like a fantastic entity to look up to
@@vickyjanway4340 amen
Yet they’re still watering their lawns, washing their cars and having 30 minute showers.
Those people are only using 10% of the water. It's the golf course, the factories, and other corporations that use 90% of water and are really driving this
Oh let's not mention ALL the golf courses and pools and grass and people building wanting all these things. No that has nothing to do with it, lol.
Too many people dependent on a single water source even without a drought. They need massive desalination plants ASAP. I heard of of talk of building a large canal from the Great Lake into lake Mead, but nothing further for a while.
We on the great lakes have a compact that was made many years ago that stops the overuse of the great lakes. So no water from the great lakes will ever be going to the west.
@@tcm2kd5000 I support that, though in a dire emergency, I have my doubts whether this stance can stand?
@Jon Adams It will be heated or worse if the Feds try it.
We folks in the Great Lakea region don't want our water going to lawns and golf courses in a dessert region.
Run a water pipeline from the flooded southern states along the railroad tracks.
When will man learn you can't control nature!
Why doesnt anyone talk about the effects of the clear cutting of the rainforests that effects the eco system of the world???
Fun fact....Vegas would be fine eve with 3 million people if southern California didn't take the majority of the water.
Allow prices to rise from the shortage and people will stop watering their lawns very quickly
Nestle's bottled Lake Shasta too.
Down to 25%
Water is worth the same as crude oil is for 55 gallons $60ish
Bottling water is a lot easier than pumping oil.. and the rivers/lakes started vanishing when bottled water started being a thing.
Cuz more population has nothing to do with it. Just Las Vegas has tripled in population in 20 years. They have over populated the area for the recourses that are available. Do the math on a concretive level if every person uses 50 gallons of water a day. You will see the problem.
Probably about time to ban swimming pools
I can remember well back in the early 70s the water levels were aplenty, the population affected the water levels terribly, nobody gave it any thoughts about conserving water. Too little, to late.
We get daily afternoon rain in SE Texas. It's our hottest month but I have not had to use the sprinkler system.
We need to make a list of percentage of reservoirs filled instead of falling apart over Mead
Lake Michigan in Chicago is actually rising😂
Must remember. Water rights. Somebody exercised their rights at Southfork Reservoir. Super low! I am sure this is what is happening here.
yea 40 million people just found out that the water supply is limited
this is the wisdom of human. Crure oil/natural gas can be pump from few thousand km but water cannot pump from far?? Just transfer the flooded area water to the reservoir
20 years ago people drove gasoline powered cars, where more water molecules were added to the atmosphere which created more rain for reservoirs, therefore no extra strain on the hydro dams. But today, so many people drive electric cars, most homes are equipped with air conditioning units, and this places so much extra demand for electricity, that today's hydro dams are not able to keep up.
Every time I flew into Sin City, the Cantina Band song from Star Wars would pop into my brain and I would think "This city should never have been built". Las Vegas accounts for only a few of the 40 million dependent on Lake Mead and the city won't be there for much longer.
The "desert" southwest is the most heavily populated place in the country. Can't live in the desert and think you can have a lifestyle like you live on the great lakes. It's just insanity to live that way when you live in the desert, time to live in reality
Lake Mead and Hoover Dam literally powers the entire Tri State Area. This would be bad if this continues.
And people still move there!
Time to start looking into desalination plants
ain't gonna happen
too expensive
@@MyKharli that’s not the problem. The problem is what to do with the chemical filled brine
You are way behind. One large one built already in Carlsbad and another on the way in Orange County. But it’s no silver bullet and they are very expensive. Many other strategies being employed.
Need desalination plants on the coast! 🇺🇸💙
Easy solution yet politicians play Grabass.
The real problem is they made 20 new car washes this year.
Arizona state does not care about the water.They went money.
Thanks Blue Mesa Lake Colorado for your water this week!
I suggest a TOILET TAX! 🤗
The more toilets you have in your house, the more you pay... no need for 3,4,5,6 or more per house! Same with multiple shower heads.
If people think the water comes from the faucet, then stories like this should be a wake-up call. 🤔
The number of toilets does not change how often a family member will use a toilet. A family will not flush four toilets more times than they would flush one toilet, if they all have to use one toilet.
Watch August 14 YT THE Final Days by understanding this heat...
This we’ll change when real government elected by the people who are for the people will fix the problem
Not scary enough to stop watering golf courses in Vegas.
You reap what you sow .. Happy August America ;)
Why do they still allow grass in yard. ? Be happy you have a home . But no people want green in a desert to tell friend look at my grass in the desert beautiful isn’t it
Stop calling it a drought...its overuse, plain and simple...stop building
Move to Florida, Bradenton and Sarasota areas in Florida are great places for retirees and families. Good weather, plenty of water.
Bet everyone's grass is nice and green tho....
How all those golf courses stay green is beyond me...
population growth, just a matter of time until worldwide food shortages also
There's plenty of water on this Earth it just requires a little work to make it useable, the Carlsbad Desalination Plant generates nearly 50 million gallons of desalinated ocean water daily, enough to serve 400,000 people, and that's just one facility.
And how much does that water cost ?
Desalination plants can only be effective if you live near the ocean. And what about all those sea animals that rely on that water? I think we've done enough harm to them.
We have three branches of government on the state and federal levels. All U.S. citizens are responsible to fill government jobs when the positions open soon.
Nevada was developed for the casinos by mafias. Real Christians don't lie.
The river banks need maintenance and repair to prevent seeping and leakage
@@bikinisforever4163 Desalination isn't a perfect solution it's an alternative to having nothing, the salt you speak of would have to be treated as unusable waste which in itself would require it's own designated/isolated holding area....just like radio active waste....go figure.
Can we start building water pipelines from snow caps and great lakes
Asking $1 billion to better understand the water? Wasteful boondoggle! Won't any water left to waste.
I wouldn't live in any of those states if you gave me a house.
I have 10 Acer's one hour south of the san ysidro boarder near puerto nuevo and I contracted someone to dig for water I got water after 20 feet I ran out of money if not I would of gone deeper I could of started a water selling business. There's water out there guy's too bad San Diego is so expensive and has so many regulations
They should of cut water usage years ago and maintained a higher level for this reason. I'm questioning the integrity of the dam maybe it cannot support the weight of the water at full capacity. And thus being the reason it was never filled back up after the last time it was at capacity. Hmm
