California's drought is worsening and yet residents used more water in March than any month since 2015, defying pleas for conservation, US officials say
Water use in California increased slightly in January and February before exploding in March when compared to 2020 figures.
California's drought is worsening and yet residents used more water in March than any month since 2015, defying pleas for conservation from Governor Gavin Newsom and other authorities, state officials have announced.Newsom last summer asked residents to voluntarily cut water use by 15 percent. He encouraged people to water their yards less often, run dishwashers less and install more efficient appliances.
The state's conservation rate gradually increased, aided by some intense fall and early winter storms that reduced water demand. But the first three months of 2022 have been some of the driest ever recorded.
