11. California’s Drought Crisis Framing
www.conteneo.co
Option 1: Refill the Aquifer.
Option 2: Add or
Tap New Sources.
Option 3: Allow market
forces to solve the problem.
If we deplete the aquifer
much more, we risk massive
infrastructure problems. A
sustainable water
management policy means
first refilling the aquifer.
We should add new sources
of water, including
acquisition of water from
the Tuolumne River and
desalination plants to keep
the aquifer at current levels
and allow us to sustain our
lifestyle.
Water is maintained at an
artificially lower price point.
This option uses market
forces to allow water to
trade at its natural cost,
which will motivate the
conservation and
innovation.
12. Actions & Drawbacks
www.conteneo.co
Action:
Tap into groundwater
Drawback:
Continued pumping of
groundwater can cause land
subsidence (sagging) which can
adversely affect underground
utilities like sewer systems
Option:
Add or Tap New
Water
Great Idea!
Oh, that’s not
good…
Actions are the steps that
can be taken
Drawbacks are the
downsides to each action
