Lake Mead is not full. And the water it accumulate does not make Vegas anything like sustainable at its current growth.

[Oiled]

The fact that farms in that watershed keep drilling deeper into a depleting aquifer (the aquifer is the real measure of any longterm water usage balance) is further evidence of what ecologists have been pointing out for a century.  Deserts are not sustainable for large human populations.  It's fairly sure that buying desalinated seawater from Cali next door will eventually be necessary.  Hopefully from solar-powered plants.

Steinbeck, writing in the forties, (one of my favorite US authors) noted how wet years in the West would induce temporary amnesia about the drought part of the cycle.  He talks about it a fair bit in his masterpiece East of Eden.
Vegas will need a clever Samuel Hamilton (a character based on Steinbeck's own grandfather, of the same name)

Las Vegas... sustainable.

Spit take of the week so far.

Aquifer monitoring was part of an early job, post-college.  It's a big concern in Nebraska, where I was living at the time. I've kept up with the field a little but through a professional network and science forum, not usually google searches. 

I am seriously starting to wonder if you are experiencing early symptoms of dementia, given that you now avoid almost any real discussion of facts, something you were up for a few years ago.  Your increasing paranoia that everyone who disagrees with you is just haphazardly cut/pasting seems to be fed by a general tendency to project your own struggles onto others.  I hope you are getting the help you need.

Theodore Roosevelt Lake is a large reservoir formed by Theodore Roosevelt Dam on the Salt River in Arizona as part of the Salt River Project. Located roughly 80 miles northeast of Phoenix in the Salt River Valley, Theodore Roosevelt is the largest lake or reservoir located entirely within the state of Arizona. Wikipedia

-------

Our Forefathers here in the USA were smart men, and they built dams in strategic locations during the Great Depression and then the dams had 100 years to fill up the lakes. Now we have huge lakes to supply us with water for Farming, etc. Arizona is supplying New York, Chicago, Detroit, Cincinnati, Saint Louis, etc, with fresh Winter Vegetables.

The dams that we built 100 years ago went on to serve us well, and we are lucky to have lakes to supply us with water for Winter Vegetables, etc.

Certainly we need to be wise, and we need to look closely at our water supply, but our fore-fathers helped us by building dams, they were smart men.

Well, you know RedDick. He has no knowledge, information or opinion except what he cuts and pastes from right wing web sites, so he assumes the same of everyone else.

But you do have to admit, it is pretty funny to see someone who claimed to be a 47 year old man who covered an event, as a reporter, that would have occurred 4 years before he was born doubting someone else's back story.

Southern California's summer of discontent - marked by a series of work stoppages from hotels to Hollywood - has inspired labor-supporting Democrats in the state legislature to try to change the law so striking workers can get unemployment checks while they picket for better pay and working conditions. 2 days ago

Giving the striking workers unemployment checks is wise, and it will help the workers in their struggle for fair pay and good treatment.

Yuma, Arizona, is growing 90% of the Winter Vegetables for the East Coast, and they are getting water from the Colorado River. They are also growing the premium wheat to be exported to Italy for the premium pastas.

https://www.visityuma.com/about-yuma/agritourism/

There is a huge demand for water from the Colorado River.

We can get more water from Lake Theodore Roosevelt for Winter Vegetables.

I hope they have nice fun farming villages, instead of just brutal farm work, I hope they have good times and a sense of community while they work to supply people with food. And they have the United Farm Workers, so they will be treated well. And refugees from our Southern Border can go to Yuma to work as Farm Workers.

Sunkist is exporting fruit from California and from Arizona to Vietnam...

https://leisure-travel.vn/leisure-news/sunkist-arrives-in-vietnam-to-deliver-fresh-and-delicious-navel-oranges-from-sunny-california/

I am sure we are also exporting Sunkist products to China.

In 2022, California exported goods with a total value of about 17.7 billion U.S. dollars to China. This figure represents an increase from 2021, which saw a total export value of approximately 16.5 billion U.S. dollars. Jun 8, 2023

Growing up in Suffolk County our aquifer water was great! We got our water by pumping it up from under our house.

For an 8th grade science project we had my tap water tested by NYS and the report on the chemical composition basically told us to drink from the garden hose.
When I came home from college the Town landfill had leached toxins into the water rendering it un potabpple.l
The Town and County were like it is no big deal just buy bottled water.
So I joined a community organization working to push the county to supply municipal water service.I became a community organizer with the Citizens Alliance as a media coordinator.
Once the spotlight started falling on the county electeds they finally got their shit together and got the Feds to pay for a water system.

Then I got my first paying job as an organizer with New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG).

In a statement released by Edward Waters University, the school said that an unidentified male was on campus on Saturday, and that the person had refused to identify himself to an on-campus security officer and was asked to leave.

The individual returned to their car and left campus without incident, the statement reads, adding that the encounter was reported to the Jacksonville Sheriff

Just catching up with the story.  Did they match that guy to the DG shooter?  A lot more people could have died if he had remained on the campus.  And yet another shooting where the perp is emboldened by wearing body armor - makes me wonder if that would be something bannable.  The Second Amendment doesn't say anything about body armor.
