Population growth and development have outpaced water supplies. Stuff is going to get desperate.
Nope. All household and business combined only use 20% of the water supply in CA.
80% of our water supply is used for only two things: 1. Agriculture. 2. Flushing a non-stop, huge volume of fresh water out to sea in the Sacramento Delta, in an effort to protect a tiny, endangered fish, the Delta Smelt, from being eaten by other fish, who are the natural predator to the Delta Smelt.
The delta smelt are near the base of the fish food chain and are used as a means to gauge health of the entire fishery.
And you're talking about Northern California which only supplies a part of the water consumed in the South. The major source is the Colorado river which is massively over utilized.
And not sure why you consider agriculture use somehow separate from population and development. People gotta eat.
