Governor Gavin Newsom is sounding the alarm over enduring California water shortages, saying the state will lose another 10% in water supplies by 2040 due to climate change.
Newsom announced a strategy to invest in infrastructure to capture and store more water. California farmers are fallowing land due to water shortages in a third consecutive year of drought.
State water officials are now considering regulations for the Sacramento-San Joaquin river delta, which could make irrigation supplies even more scarce.
