Well said ronbo. All of So Cal is a horrible location for a megalopolis. Looks like we're committed tho. Desal is expensive and provides little water Vs conservation that saves money and water. It is going to take a fundamental attitude shift in water users to make things better. Water doesn't come from the tap and it does vanish down the drain. Mike

We have water shortages here and I can see a snow capped mountain from my porch, much of the US southwest is going to have major water related challenges.

For water salinity change implications, see what is happening in the Sea of Cortez due to the Colorado River being sucked dry.
