Here is the California Governors announcement in regards to the drought.
They have been aware of this for months and we are being spoon fed the
details.
But the end result will be a large bond issue which we will have no choice
but to vote for....or so they think if we never hear anything other than
what they tell us.
Oh, it's crisis coming our way and soon but if you click on the graph to the
right which looks some what like a chart it shows the major reservoirs for
the state. And all but three are located in northern California and two of
the others are in central California.
Their intention is to increase the capacity of the reservoirs as well as the
pumping and delivery system primarily for southern California.
Will this work?
Maybe...if we have heavy snows on the Sierra/Nevada mountain range for a
number of winters we could continue faking the water issue. And of course
building enlarged reservoirs would make that situation more flexible.
But what our fair leaders are not telling us is they have climatologist
whose predictions for the western states having wet winters is just plain
bleak.
So i assume they want to get us in a corner with few options for water
relief and then tell us either cough up the money or your kids are going to
go thirsty. Would they actually be so devious?
Before answering that i suggest you look in to the 'compassionate' eyes of
our movie star governor.
What i believe would be the realistic though politically suicidal response
to this water crisis by the state bureaucrats would be to tell us the truth.
And that is that the game is over and the states future water resources are
going to drastically change. The glaciers all over the world are melting and
why should our range of mountains be the one exception?
They could maybe hint that the semi desert which is southern California will
soon again be a desert. And any water delivery plan proposed depends on
water from the mountains which nolonger experience snow in the winter. So
building reservoirs which will never be filled with water is a senseless
proposal.
But what maybe the fall back plan if the public decides they will not join
them in mass stupidly and vote for a super bond issue to play: lets make
water from air?
We'll i haven't seen this mentioned...so far... but you know that green wet
spot up North and which the natives refer to as Canada. And we just see as a
raw material source. Yeah, that's the one.... Canada!
And Dude! Do they have just what's needed...water? Why by the lakes full.
And Bechtel Engineering will happily build a pipe line to the north pole if
the state has the money...which of course it doesnt.
Their are little problems around taking... i mean acquiring Canada's water.
As they are not into bulk sales of their water ....at this time. But worry
not if the state of California wants water for corporate farms and industry
they will us every means possible short of nuking them to get it.
As i said this doesnt have to be rational. The aquatic cannel from northern
California is long term insanity so why not build on it by using 30 million
peoples fear. Why thirty million well their are 23 - 24 million in SoCal and
the rest of us live in fear of that voting block so we have gone along...so
far.
And i could leave it their but since we are on the subject of reality and
right here even in the western home land. We do have a couple of other
crisis issues coming right at us though i believe the water crisis could
lock it up first.
The nation is in and continuing to enter a deep across the board economic
recession.
And 'Peak oil' is very real how much we would like to believe it is just a
matter of Hedge Fund speculation and it will turn out to be another energy
crisis caused by ENRON or Duke look alike market speculators. Crude oil
production world wide was off a million barrels a day in 2007.
