It is me. It is me and my hunger for almonds that is killing California, sorry moridin. Though I fully support desalination plants, turn some of that undrinkable ocean into something useful

Desalination plants seems like one of those ideas that would have been implemented as soon as they were available. Then again, I'm from a city that reversed the flow of a river so we could literally flush our poo poo and garbage into the south suburbs.  CHICAGO POLITICS!

They are incredibly expensive and energy intensive, compared to pretty much any other method of getting water to a place.

It’s cheaper to just buy the alfalfa growers’ water, but cities aren’t actually that desperate.

I'm curious how that looks now since they've been blasting it for two days straight at 100,000cfs, twice the amount that caused that hole to double in size.

Bakersfield is so backwards that a school board trustee assaulted someone who was protesting the same sex marriage ban. He did not lose his job.

As a Californian who grew up in the arid wastes of the southern end of the state, my position is the almonds are worth every drop of water wrung from the needy. I really like almonds. Like, a lot.

They fixed Folsom dam a couple of years ago when they realized that it would kill like a bazillion people if it failed. Maybe the potentially dead people in front of Oroville are less valuable.
