Well this is the worst drought in 500 years is what they claim, but 500 years ago there were not so many people nor so much farm land. I just do not see where the water is going to come from to service the population. If this goes on say another 10 years if it's a long one, they won't have water. It's obvious by the plant growth in the lake beds that many of these places have been like this for several years already.
