  1. Those rich people they are the ones they use all the water and they government don’t cut the rich people water only the poor people the are drying the lake the solution is just cut the rich people water end every body well have water

  2. If there is really a drought, why is it still legal to have a lawn. I see so much water in California being wasted on lawns, plants and trees that are not native to the environment. They require tons of water. I'm guessing it didn't take long for that ladies grass to disappear.

  3. California needs to ban swimming pools, fish ponds, fountains, sprinkler systems, jacuzzis, etc. It's ridiculous, the mega-mansions have multiple full size pools, fountains, acres of water chugging lush green landscaping. These mansions are taking over. Cutting down an entire forest to supply premium woods, carving out the side of a mountain for stone tiles, columns, counters etc. only to annoy the neighbors and be bought by some psuedo billionaire (later convicted of embezzlement) with no one wanting a custom built home not suiting anyone else's taste, the homes go vacant and rot! It's a travesty and despicable waste for an ego. Arizona, California and Nevada are DESERTS where water evaporates instantly. Imagine the amount of water that evaporates every day from the Bellagio Fountains? And hotels with theme park size aquariums!!

  4. The lady's daughter works in a professional environment, has to shower daily, and was "struggling" using a bucket full of water to bathe in the bathroom tub. LOL…First world problems…humans are doomed. The gentleman missing the leg and the immuno compromised young lady, these ARE real issues.

  5. Did that reporter bring water when he planned this trip to do this story? If not….. Interviewing people about not having access to water in the 21st century! And is this in America? That's worse. All that ground water depletion in the name of progress .

  6. the Mayor shows the broken well with no indication of repair. He just talks about the problem. There should be people there fixing and drilling, but nope. not a priority.

  7. I have three suggestions for the drought one is to build multiple desalination plants along the coastline to bring in water on the West Coast the second is declare the the nation emergency water storage for the west and hire hundreds of thousands of truck driver tankers to transport water from the East Coast like Mississippi to the West Coast and third is build multiple Pipelines from the East to the West to transport water

  8. I can punch a new well through that sand in 4 hours you're being melt and making a story out of nothing just punch another well right beside it we've been drilling Wells for 57 years leave now we're talkin about just punch a new well it's quicker cheaper easier and you have water in a day

  9. While I appreciate definitely appreciate their endeavors, instead of exploring space, why don't we have billionaires working to fix the issues we encounter on a daily basis?!?

  10. They shouldn't have to wait for these wells to brake down before getting them fixed as they should have regular maintenance on them to keep them functioning.

  11. Last time I checked their are machines to remove the salt from ocean water….you all want to talk about rising oceans you got plenty of water out there start pumping it out!!!!!!!!

  12. The earth yeilds enough to food and water to nuture 7 planets,scarcity in food is only from GMOs and the earth will always have water but the government wants to make earth a barren land.thats why its illegal for citizens to receive or send seeds.they want to control the food to be able to control the people like henry kissinger said.there is no drought just a government that doesn't want to help because they are in the middle of their depopulation agenda.look up the georgia guide stones and nesara gesara.

  13. When the guy running their water management thinks nothing of wasting a 1/2 gallon just to demonstrate it’s flowing, he clearly still hasn’t come close to actually learning or modifying cavalier behavior at all.

  14. Stupid people and stupid government. They need to build sea water distiller plants powered by the sun. They're so used to free water from nature that they're to cheap to build these solar water distillers. This water shortage is not going away. It's going to get worse. Maybe they should get some native americans to do some rain dances. Hi Ya Ya Ya, Hi Ya Ya Ya.😀

  15. At the beginning of this content when they declare that "this was the last working well", people should've known as the wells dried up that it was probably time to consider moving.

  16. capitalism is too cheap to clean up its own mess to the point where everything dies and if this continues our way of life is over. better get on it murica.

  17. I'm very thankful to not live in America! High crime, both parties hate each other, which they shouldn't. Some cities have high homeless rates, now not enough water, which humans need to live!

  18. Treat all waste water and build some desal plants for a start. How far are they going to let this situation get out of hand before doing something about it 🤷🏽‍♂️
