(24,801 posts)All it does is allow people to feel that they're "doing" something about the drought when they're doing nothing. I will bet you that most of the Californians posting in this thread have done little if anything to conserve water themselves. Much easier to invoke useless woo as a "solution," then go about your daily routine without making any attempt to cut back on your own water usage.
A 20% reduction wouldn't be a joke if the majority of Californians took it seriously. But they won't.
I'm hardly being hostile. I'm posting actual solutions that might actually help. You know, scientific solutions.
I don't see what standing on one leg in your backyard and singing Kumbaya is going to do to end the drought.
Yes, we all want rain. Some solutions have a chance. Others - woo - are make believe.
You may as well head off to your local church and pray for rain. That will work as well in CA as it did for Rick Perry in TX.
