  • Farmers Lose 18% of Water to Salmon--Food Costs to Increase

    "Now, in the first full year of the restoration, east San Joaquin Valley farmers will lose up to 230,000 acre-feet of water to keep the flow going. It amounts to 18% of the water they have been getting after an average season."

    How is the water being used? "Jacobsma also said some restoration water may reach the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, where officials could attempt to pump it back to east-side farmers through canals. But that might prove difficult because federal officials have been forced to cut back pumping to protect threatened fish."

    Fish, not people--by court order.

    Another weapon being used in the suicide of California.
