We simply are not investing the dollars necessary to meet our present and future needs. Today it is energy. Tomorrow's water supply crisis will be much worse unless we act now to develop new water sources designed to meet all of the state's needs. A recent survey by the California Chamber of Commerce indicated that 73 percent of small business leaders felt that we will be facing a serious water crisis within the next three years. Conservation and water transfers are part of the solution, however, with our ever increasing population, we need to do more if we are going to avoid the situation we are experiencing today with energy.
Hydroelectric power is a clean energy source that provides water for California's faucets and farms.
