      Unless you do actually dig a canal from an overused water source to fill it, like they did. So right now it is basically another colorado reservoir except that since it's harder to measure how much is in there, the government finds it a bit harder to regulate how much comes out.

It really feels like businesses like golf resorts who bring in capital get priority over the environment and water resources which really sucks because we live in the desert and we have a HUGE DROUGHT.

    A little too friendly towards California and golf courses and especially farmers. A lot of the issues here have to due with how the Colorado river water was distributed, how the use it or lose it structure pushes wasteful crops, and golf courses that dont use grey water at this point are outright evil. People in Las Vegas, Tucson, and other desert towns are doing alright and take measures to restrict water usage and have seriously curbed usage meanwhile larger population centers like Phoenix and California valley people have made little to no adjustments and continue to grow lawns and water heavy plants.

    It gets even more asinine out in the Coachella Valley as surf clubs are being planned in cities like Thermal and La Quinta amidst droughts and record high temperatures.

    Please ask your producers to pay for a better mic. I like your voice and cadence but it sounds like you are talking through a tin can. Cheddar, I know you can afford better sound than this. Natalia Ryzark, Raffi Paul, Carl Mueller, I'm calling you out for delivering a sub-par video.

    They can always use recycled materials instead of grass ?? If you can afford to pay for golf then you can pay higher taxes to pay for those that can’t find clean water

    I don't believe desert golf courses are a best use of water. How many people could live from this water if it were treated for human consumption? Golf courses keep watering as the poor go without. It's dystopian. The average European uses 20,000 gallons a year. Divide 9 million by 20 thousand is 4,500 people who could live on that water.

    But the average homeowner isnt allowed real grass anymore, instead replacing with artificial turf and there is now a limit on swimming pool sizes in LV, but lets not take a drop of water from the golf courses.
