Climate Change Quote of the Day:
“Look, water has been a resource that has been plentiful. But now we’ve got climate change, we’ve got population growth, we’ve got widespread groundwater contamination, we’ve got satellites showing us we are depleting some of this stuff…I think we’ve taken it for granted, and we are probably not able to do that any more.”
~ Dr. Jay Famiglietti, Director of the University of California’s Center for Hydrologic Modeling from where the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) is being conducted.
