California’s historic five-year drought ended last year, and rather than undertake infrastructure projects to collect and store water during the wet years, Gov. Jerry Brown signed into law a new water conservation act that will limit each citizen to just 50 gallons per person per day by 2050.
“In preparation for the next drought and our changing environment, we must use our precious resources wisely,” Brown said in a statement. “We have efficiency goals for energy and cars – and now we have them for water.”
