I posted in this thread today to make a effort to poke a little fun at the concept "what happen when the $hit hits the fan". As a Californian I make fun of myself and all of us on the "left coast". Believe that if you can't laugh at yourself, then there's no reason to be laughing at all.
The water problem in Cal is a serious issue, for us here, the nation and the world. Cal is the 7th largest economy in the world. This nations largest food producer and it's water that makes that all happen. We are now in our 5th year of below rainfall averages, truly a historic drought. If a total collapse was to happen, it might just start with lack of water in California.
The good news California is and has been making the necessary water conservation steps because we should, need to do so and should have a long time ago! I like almonds, California produces tons of them. Just the almond crop alone, uses more than twice the amount of water than all of Los Angeles county. We will need to figure that out and many other water problems very soon.
