There is not enough water in California to sustain our current practices and everybody knows it. In normal years and in dry years, California agriculture, industry, and households draw more groundwater than we should. And when we get wet years with deep snowpack and full reservoirs , we do not have the infrastructure to replenish the groundwater aquifers that much of the state relies on.
