I just imagine a guy in a suit made of money saying “we’re moving towards a sustainable system” while giving a golf course a money-shot with a giant water hose between his legs.
I’m definitely anti-golf course but the reality is that California grows a huge proportion of the food people in the US actually eat. Most of the Midwest is growing corn and soy for industrial purposes, not food.
If you want us to stop irrigating it won’t be the fat cats who suffer the worst when food prices double. I agree we need change and it needs to come quickly but it’s not going to happen overnight.
