Lake Mead, which provides water to 40 million people in seven states, is at just 37% capacity. Energy from Lake Mead’s Hoover Dam is being affected by the dwindling water supply.

#WorldNewsTonight #MegaDrought #LakeMead
I'm riding this from the Midwest and has a child I'm your town that produces the Caterpillar tractors and I thought that they could do no wrong they could solve any problem to build things that could fix what was broken as a child I thought of all the floods that we have here in the Midwest constant flooding of a river why in the world can't we move water like the Romans did thousands of years ago why can't we take some of the rivers in Iowa and hook them up with i-80 and then along the highway and get that water to where it belongs and it's needed can't do s*** anymore men are useless they have no big ideas they can't fix a goddamn thing we're sitting here in a flood zone and water can't get towards needed what's wrong with us
Why do we let fresh water rivers in the Pacific northwest simply flow out into the ocean?It wouldn't be an insurmountable feat to simply reroute them to feed the Colorado river, instead of wasting it by letting it flow into saltwater all day, everyday
STOP complains about drought !!!!! 4 dams are going down on Klamath River in 2023.
Why can't they fill it up with ocean water(desalination if necessary) to hover dam lake mead Oroville dam and lake Powell. Please protest for it to happen or human kind will lose food production.
You had me until the bullshit climate change crap
Americakkk is a sinful country and under judgement.Famine is coming so prepare for the worst.Get your passport because its gonna become unbearable and inflation will cause many to suffer even more.Reap what you sow is real.ðŸâ€ÂÂ¥
Looks like California will be having some big black outs soon.
bone dry ? not happened yet.
maybe aliens arrive when water is gone🤫
Why doesn’t the Us do like China does

Why don’t you give the American people historic facts? May 1934 – July 1934 massive heat wave with temps above 100 degrees grips central plains and upper Midwest for 2 weeks straight. They did not have the luxury of an a.c. during those times. Site your source, look at the Palmer Drought index on NOAA for that year! We are know where near that kind of drought level yet, and maybe it won’t get to that extreme. The majority of Americans have forgotten their history, and the News plays on your ignorance America! Record keeping for droughts in this nation has not been around long. There are periods of extreme warming and severe dry years recorded on other continents from thousands of years ago before there was cars, and industry’s. You can throw that global warming/climate change out the window. If any of you has an argument or complaint because you believe in the convenient word “climate change†turn off your t.v. and social media and study droughts throughout history. I know that there is about 50 million people plus in the desert south west states combined. That takes its toll and puts strain on the water systems. The politicians and powers that be with their grandiose ideas 💡 can solve crises they make unknowingly or knowingly and place more burdens on us. There are good people with wonderful ideas 💡 that could solve a lot of these issues, but their voices are often drowned out by the powers that be. We have to be armed with the right knowledge and facts coming together to let those in power know what we want as citizens to be done, not the other way around to satisfy the few, so they benefit monetarily.
I predict a mass migration to the Pacific Northwest and western Canada. Plenty of water and rain up there. Southwest will just get drier and hotter until it will be uninhabitable.
tell the truth you liar
Somebody is rerouting the water somewhere else, while blaming climate change. This is BS!
Mr Biden says that the illegals get first dibs on the water
🤦â€ÂÂ♂ï¸ÂÂsea water pipeline and distillation systems all the way to lake Meade.
If you can go to Mars you can pump desalinated water from to sea to your lakes and reservoirs. 🤦â€ÂÂ♂ï¸ÂÂ
Ask Joe biden for help ? He will help your Mexicans with there job loss before he helps your farm !!!!
Agriculture is causing climate change to taking up alot of water tell me is it worth it at the end once we completely run out of water
Is agriculture an jobs more important than water 💧?
God said this stuff won't take place in his word people did not believe but all his prophecies and what his word said in the Bible is being fulfilled and coming to pass so if you don't believe in stand on the word like the word says you already can damn because you don't believe in what the Lord says it don't believe and trust in his word and I believe wholeheartedly and forever more the word lives inside of me like you said in John chapter 7 verse 36 through 39 and it will become it's the Holy Spirit strings of living water flowing for all eternity like the bread of him and John chapter 6 also Isaiah 44:1-5 John chapter 4 the woman at the well also Revelations chapter 22:1-6 when you have the word living in you it will flow like streams of Living water and it will continue to flow forever more and that's what will happen when the word and the Holy Spirit live in you he will continue to flow forever more
"It's being driven by climate change"
The media will still blame climate change IF there was major flooding and if they had excessive water….
Bet Nestle will still be able to bottle several thousand bottles of water in the coming hours…
Haha!
Climate change is nothing new the drought of the 1930s known as the dust bowl carried on for years and the drought of the 1950s where Texas recorded three of its driest years ever recorded. The problem is water conservation and overuse by building cities and farms in a desert.
To all liberals no watering your yard idiot
Global warming is real and yet nobody listens and does anything to make changes
From letting Forest FIRES BURN 1,000,000,000 's. Acres..
Stupid politics.
The rest of the lakes in California pretty much look the same! ,I’m only a few mile from Folsom lake and not only can you see parts of the old town that use to be there, but now I guess they found a plane that crashed in it back in 1965 , yeah
Agriculture uses 80% of the water in the SW. Shorter showers does nothing. Farmers (or government, if they want to not waste taxpayer money for once) need to start investing in drip irrigation. Israel knows. They halved their water usage.
Oh well while Government plays politics we out here burning up 🥵 ðŸâ€ÂÂ¥ and now big agricultural, oil industries wonder where the water went
They told people that this was going to happen years ago and they didn’t believe it
Tell the stupid people to stop watering down the dust from construction zones. Bunch of whiney stupid babies!!! Stop trying to grow crops in the fricking desert too!!! Why you think it's called a desert in the first place? Stupid fricking whiney asses!!!! Just stay in California till the big earth quake then get washed away!!!
Almost like quadrupling the population IN A FUCKING DESERT was a bad idea
Utah = increase random deadly mormoon heat droughtsðŸâ€Â¥ðŸâ€Â¥ðŸâ€ÂÂ¥
Guess the flood came first…..
And it is driven by fake climate change! So park your car and save the world!
It was at 37% five years ago!
I like how he explains what lake mead is! I think he just found out!
Poor Guy. Gets paid millions to lie and Not use common sense. He looks so believes me but two brain cells together would say what?
Wait so Bill gates is taking all the farmland but making other famers suffer. It's not fair.
They sinking your country on purpose..
The evil Canadian tyrant Justin Trudeau closed down the pipelines that bring water into the USA. Time for the USA to invade Canada and get those pipelines open again!!
This is what happened when 40 million Americans overpopulate native land native people never Head drought problems without water pay the price for over population
Oh well California get your Dixon heads out of your ass and live with reality.
It's coming…
They know el nino is a'comin'. They'll have more water than they can handle next summer and ABC will be reporting on the Mega-Landslides.
I’d move. And I imagine that’s exactly what people are going to do. Without water, there is nothing.
