Not to make light of it, but if anyone can figure a way out of the challenge of the CA drought - it's wet shavers.
but the scale of usage by Big Farming, Little Farming
Not exactly sure what your implying here but what is it you expect the farmers to do, stop restocking the shelves of your local super market with fresh fruit and vegetables for your healthy diet? I think that the water I save would be best used to put food on my table!
Sir, I hope you know that cotton grows during the fall and winter in AZ when the rain comes.Oh and how about we ask the Government to stop subsidizing water to grow cotton in the middle of the AZ desert and send it to grow food anywhere. Cotton crops require 10 times the amount of water as lettuce and lettuce is one of the highest water useage everyday vegetable crops.
I honestly wouldn't be suprised if they did. [emoji2]Cotton farming in Arizona? That's funny. I hope some politician, or his family members, are making some money on that deal.

Wish they would offer this in more areas. I would so go with the artificial grass and save my time mowing and water. Our HOA finally allowed the use of it and gravel as lawn. Took a stinking lawsuit to force them to change the rules.
The drought is larger than people are ready to face. There is no reason why desalination plants haven't been built all along the coast. The biggest reason why they haven't is as George Carlin put it, it's the NIMBY defense. (For those to young to know it means Not In My Back Yard) Can't spoil that million dollar view of the sea. People living along the coast have even tried to keep everyone off the beaches by blocking the access points. People out here are looney. Correction on that, rich people out here are looney.
