"Before and After images show the vast drop in water levels at Lake Mead, which is now only at 35 percent capacity, as the western United States' drought continues. Lake Mead, the largest manmade reservoir in the United States has fallen more than 146 feet since it's peak in 2000 and is currently at 1,067.56 feet MSL, or mean sea level. Lake Mead's current low water levels mean that less water will be portioned out to certain states for the 2022 water year, marking the first 'shortage' declaration. Water levels at the reservoir have been falling since 1999 due to the dry spell enveloping the West and increased water demand."

In Brazil we are facing the biggest drought in 90 years. A Scientist recently said that Brazil is drying. We currently have water rationing in 16 cities from São Paulo State in Southeast region. We have 87 cities from Santa Catarina State on the South Region facing drought as well. in Curitiba, Capital of Paraná State, they provide water for a day and a half, and people go without water for a day and a half. It is important to note that Southeast and South of Brazil historically did not have water shortages or droughts normally. And in The Northeast of Brazil where we have a semi arid region, cities that used to have water normally are facing shortages. Because of these we have 15% decrease in crop production affecting coffee, soya and corn plantations.

Some countries have been playing with the weather for years now, the USA, China, Russia and several middle east countries in particular. The unintended consequences are now being felt around the globe. The one thing that most of these countries have perfected is making clouds shed their moisture. Making it rain in one part of the world will cause drought in another. This is simply natures promise.

This is above and beyond anything that may be happening to the climate around the world and in our solar system.

I can't speak about Lake Meade but several months ago California and Oregon both quietly announced they were dumping as much as five years of water from reservoirs and dams. In Cali, something was mumbled about a fish that may be going extinct as the reason to dump all the water.

Wow, goodbye to a lot, if not most, of apples, oranges, walnuts, almonds, peaches, plums...

Despite record-breaking drought conditions, California officials are draining reservoirs

May 31, 2021

by: Ethan Huff,

The Golden State is entering yet another severe dry season and the state government is responding by draining all the reservoirs and dumping all that precious fresh water straight into the ocean.

Shocking new reports indicate that over the past several weeks, the California State Water Board has routed at least 90 percent of Delta inflow right into the sea, leaving farmers with no water to grow their crops.

“It’s equal to a year’s supply of water for 1 million people,” tweeted Central Valley farmer Kristi Diener, along with the hashtag “#ManMadeDrought.”

While California’s reservoirs are designed to hold up to five years’ worth of fresh water for the state’s water needs – and had been filled to capacity back in June 2019 – the state’s water overseers are now flushing all that water down the toilet, essentially.

According to Diener, who is both a farmer and a water expert, fresh water is being unnecessarily dumped from California’s reservoirs at a time when it is most needed, which bodes ominous for the coming summer season.

“Are we having a dry year? Yes,” Diener says.

“That is normal for us. Should we be having water shortages in the start of our second dry year? No. Our reservoirs were designed to provide a steady five-year supply for all users, and were filled to the top in June 2019.”

A data chart from the California Data Exchange Center shows that back in 2019, all of the state’s reservoirs were well over capacity. Now, they are all being drained for some unknown reason.

“You’re looking at our largest reservoirs less than two years ago,” Diener says about the chart.

“They were absolutely teeming with water from 107% to 145% of average! Our reservoirs held enough water for everyone who relies on them for their water supply, for 7 years. We are barely into our second dry year. WHERE DID IT GO?”

There would be no water shortages in California if the government stopped draining all the fresh water into the ocean

According to the California Legislative Analyst’s Office, statewide water usage averages around 85 gallons per day per person. This is not very much, and yet urban and residential users are routinely ordered to conserve as much water as possible by letting their lawns turn brown and die, avoid taking showers, and washing their clothes more infrequently.

Meanwhile, the state government has opened up the dams to let all the fresh water in reserve flow right into the ocean. It is akin to turning on your faucet and letting it run all day, every day, except your faucet is the size of a canyon.

The hypocrisy is stunning, and yet too few Californians seem to be aware of what is taking place right underneath their noses. There is simply no reason for all this fearmongering about water shortages when the state government is wasting all the water that would otherwise be available in abundance.

“Before our magnificent reservoir projects were built, California never had a steady and reliable supply of water. Now water is being managed as if those reserves don’t exist, by emptying the collected water from storage to the sea, rather than saving it for our routinely dry years,” Diener says.

“Our water projects were designed to be managed for the long term providing a minimum five year supply, but California has now put us on track to have a man-made drought crisis every time we don’t have a wet season.”

As for Gov. Gavin Newsom’s $5.1 billion so-called “drought response” package, it does absolutely nothing to fix the problem. All it does is pay off water bills that were made too expensive by the state’s intentional water scarcity scheme.

One more way the elites have found to kill off more people, imho.

I wrote a post on here a while back about the Bush family buying up land because of the water underneath. Seems like an investment and control thing by those with power....

Aye, aye...

....China has a growing water shortage yet has the fastest growing bottled water market in the world. In some countries, individuals are not even allowed to collect rain water on their own land, yet Apparently, cocacola and nestle are attempting to acquire ownership of the Guarani Aquifer the 2nd largest aquifer water system which is under Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay.

Water getting sold up to 60 x more per acre/foot to oil companies requiring vast amounts of water for their fracking compared to the price sold to farmers. Makes you think water is the new gold/oil/bitcoin.

I seem to recall the Bush family buying 000s of acres of land in uruguay a few years back. Was it because the land was above the 450,000+ square miles (8000+ cubic miles) of water which the rights to are now being sold?

Imagine owning 3 x the size of California's worth of fresh water when the majority of the planet is salt water.

As governments penalise and limit individual's access to water, private organisations and financial institutions are buying up the rights to water worldwide at an alarming pace.

Eee me, where's it all going to end?

(Probably in tears.)

Un-frickin-believable. But then again, when it comes to these traitors to planet Earth and humanity, immanently believable.

My suspicion as to why they would do this is: they want keep water levels low and always on the verge of running out, because it maintains the illusion of...duh-duh-duh "CLIMATE CHANGE".

Make the water bottling companies rake in more and more revenue. Nestle is easily one of the biggest companies in the food and water sector, owning the majority of bottled water companies. With no water getting through people's sinks, they'll go out and buy all the bottled water they can. This will cause a huge spike in revenue for the bottling companies who will just write it off as "higher demand" instead of a controlled effort to sabotage mother nature for profit.

Quick edit: Star Mariner is completely right about the "climate change" farce that they desperately try to maintain.

I would say that it is not climate change that is the farce. It is 'climate change' that is. It is another one of those ambiguous phrases that has a special meaning that has nothing to do with science or facts. And none of us are privy to the actual 'special' meaning of that term.

Climate changes all the time.
