California has no excuse for water shortages or lack of equitable water distribution.
California has no excuse for water shortages or lack of equitable water distribution. A December 14, 2003 Orange Country Register editorial quoted Brett Barbre of the Municipal Water District of Orange County as saying, "more water is released out of the San Francisco Bay every day than would meet the needs of all of Southern California for a year." In addition, we possess the technology to turn seawater to drinking and irrigation water. I support legislation that restores water rights and allows ethical private industries to build desalination plants and sell their water to local and inland towns.
