Ken Hilving:
> The measurements show the amount of water lost in the two main Central Valley river basins within the past six years could almost fill the nation’s largest reservoir, Lake Mead in Nevada [AP]. The total is about 30 cubic kilometer; one cubic km contains more than 264 billion gallons of water.
There is abundant water in the Rocky Mountains and in the Canadian north.
It is politics and ONLY politics that prevents the construction of the irrigation systems that would solve this ground water problem and turn Califonia's central valley into a productive agricultural Eden.Private Reply to Thomas Holford (new win) |
