I said if you are concerned about your personal water bill or the water deliveries to your neighbors, then, yeah, your behavior might make a difference. For the drought, however, if your entire city (San Francisco) stopped using all water, it wouldn't make a difference in the drought. It's a drop compared to what agriculture uses. <br /><br />Then she went on about buying local produce bought at the farmers' market, and I just about lost it because there is no freaking way that all the produce she is eating was grown in San Francisco. Maybe it's from the SJ valley, but grown in California includes a Imperial Valley, and it's not like it's labeled that exactly.<br /><br />RANT RANT RANT.Neeferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07952788903808853807noreply@blogger.com
