@nytimes: Facing drought after drought, Los Angeles has managed to reduce its water use by more than a third, even as the population has grown. Michael Kimmelman, editor at large of Headway, a team at The New York Times focused on paths to progress on big challenges, reports. #losangeles #water #environment #drought
80% of all water is used for farming, 13% goes to industrial use, the remains 7% is residential use. Average Citizens are not the problem

i think it’s funny to see the state making such efforts and still allowing so many golf courses which are an abomination for both the environnement and urbanism overall

Good on Los Angeles for doing its part and continuing to work at it. However, agriculture and industrial uses make up more than 80% of water use in the state. This is where more work needs to be done.

I will fight on the hill that the city of Los Angeles and state of California have been so poorly managed for the last several decades by sellouts

Recycling is for farm use not for direct consumption. I like how Sac is doing it. That treated water goes right into the environment.

we need to do more stormwater capture. turning the river into basically a sewer channel was not a good idea
