California is entering the fourth year of a record-breaking drought creating an extremely parched landscape. Governor Brown declared a drought State of Emergency in January and directed state officials to take all necessary actions to prepare for water shortages. The state has continued to lead the way to make sure California is able to cope with an unprecedented drought.
Is this drought natural or man-made?

In this before-and-after composite image, (Top) The Enterprise Bridge passes over full water levels at a section of Lake Oroville in Oroville, California, July 20, 2011.
The severe drought has impacted rivers, lakes and snow packs.
With so much of our produce coming from California, I hate to see what the extended economic effects of this drought will be.
