From dust bowl to California drought: a climate scientist on the lessons we still haven’t learned
Recent interview with Peter Gleick, the co-founder of the Pacific Institute, a global thinktank that has become a leading voice on water issues in California and around the world, showed us the real issues with droughts in California. He stated that they weren't just a strange, accidental dry periods but due to climate change, they're increasingly the norm. During last drought there people learned a little about how to improve water efficiency yet they still seem to not realize the situations are not random.
I think that, as Peter Gleick said, the first, biggest step in our fight with climate is to make everyone realize that it absoltely is changing and it's a serious problem. People should start caring more about how much they pollute the air and waste water. It's nowadays very cheap so people don't think much when they use it. But the reults of it in California are what they hate the most - droughts. They really should see that it's their fault and try to improve the situation.
