It used to be that our reservoirs out West held water, but if you were to look around, you would see that now they mostly hold air.
Michael Olson Food Chain Radio – Geoengineering – Nature or Nurture?
At least, that is what I saw on a recent road trip up I-5 through California’s Central Valley into Oregon, which took me past the great Shasta reservoir that feeds California’s Sacramento River with cold water through the heat of the state’s hot summers.
But when I looked down to the bottom of that barren-brown basin, I saw a bare trickle of water. Frightening!
Shasta is not the only dam out here in the West that is holding so little water and so much air. Most all of them are. And surface water dams are not the only reservoirs that are much less than half-empty. Groundwater aquifers are also running very low.
Two of the most important aquifers in the United States are those of California’s Central Valley, and the Ogallala beneath the Great Plains. Both are in arid regions, where more than half of America’s food is grown. When more water is withdrawn from aquifers than is deposited, the ground subsides beneath our feet. The West is shriveling up like a plum drying into a prune.
Some say the weird weather is simply Mother Nature having her way, and point to tree rings that tell the story of droughts coming and going throughout time. Others say the weird weather is being nurtured by “Them” and point to a sky filled with wild patterns of vapor trails.
I, for one, have leaned toward the nature side of the debate. But when I saw video of a bone-dry Yangtze River not flowing through downtown Shanghai during the peak of China’s flood season, I wondered, ‘Is it time to consider that weather is being nurtured?’

#1 Agriculture is the foundation upon which we build all our sand castles.
#2 The farther we go from the source of our food, the less control we have over what’s in that food.
#3 Cheap food isn’t! READ MORE
