@saharra22469- Most of us are consumers not producers, that is one of the reasons of our problems

for some reason i really don't believe you. if you actually did live in one of those areas then you, of all people, would understand this subject the most. lying isn't pretty, especially when you are only doing it to try and win an argument with someone you don't even know on the internet! lol

" Just ask the people living in these areas!"
As a matter of fact, I live in the area under discussion.

alarmist bullcrap? they have nothing but facts that are backed up by people with PHDs. The only ones full of crap here are the people ignoring the problem and choosing to remain ignorant while denying everything. Just ask the people living in these areas! get real please.

Re: Mr Cropper's comment about alarmist bullcrap. I wonder how the 60,000 workers and many farmers shutting down 1 million acres of California farmland due to a 2009 zero Fed water allocation feel about his perspective?

Why is it that everybody is afraid to talk about one of the biggest problems causing our natural resources to run dry and causing pollution and green house gases.
Population growth must be controlled and it must be controlled now. This remark is not about the earth being able to sustain more.
It's about the crises we have now...and are unable to solve. It's going to get worse, destroy us all and our planet if population isn't controlled, as well as industrial pollutions.

34:28, Sen.Kyle, remarks that Native Tribes want to start projects to get "wet water" so they can get federal funding from the Govt. This implication is dishonet.
The native tribes had water and resources here until the infux of people came in here and took it away from them. Now they are placed on the driest, dirtiest areas and the Govt. has told them It's their reservations.
Give them mountains, with streams and deer.
They shouldn't have to apply to the Federal Govt. It's their land,water.

water is life. we, animals, plants are all going to die without clean water or any drinkable fresh water.
Control population growth. It must be done at some point anyway. May as well start now, before things grow worse.
Over population growth is adding to many of our problems, also in other countries.
Please...no posters stating the earth can hold more.. this is not the subject.
