      On a much smaller scale, Sumas Lake reappeared in the Fraser River valley east of Vancouver in '21. The native folks were pushing for it being left to recover to what it once was, an historical tribal food source, but for most, it was a new phenomenon. It was very shallow, and varied between 10,000 and 30,000 acres during the spring freshet. They decided instead to increase dykes and pumping power to keep it dry.

    I like to preserve it original lake like before. This may have been the reason that California keep having drought. The water and precipitation cycke disrupted when the settlers drained the lake to farm. If the lake is kept at it natural stage without human interference, drought would be less frequent to none.

    The restoration of the Tulare Lake watershed would greatly improve the quality of life and natural landscape of the southern San Joaquin Valley - which people think is a desert - but it was actually greener than the Northern Central Valley AKA the Sacramento Valley. The opportunities for recreation and even prime real estate which is what California is all about is probably the only thing that would get people to want to protect it.

    Short term it will have a bad impact on farming and the economy, but if it stays, which it should, it will have numerous long-term benefits: evaporation will increase rainfall to other parts of the region which will reduce drought, it will at least partially restore aquifers so will reduce land sinking and provide more drinking and irrigation water, and it can be used directly for irrigation of farmland - but use of water will have to be monitored with water permits and public ownership of aquifers and wells probably the best option to keep it sustainable so that it doesn't disappear again

    Wait, what? Your report makes the return of Tulare Lake a bad thing. I thought wetlands were sacred not to be disturbed or interfered with. If water is so precious then why is a state that is in perpetual drought so eager to see it dry up again? I am with the native Americans on this. Preserve Tulare Lake at all costs…!

    It is great news for the earth's biosphere water evaporation provides critical oxygen replenishment. Most importantly, it will help the ozone layer that acts like a natural shield against UV rays from the Sun.

If you let the lake grow, you could have a big enough fresh water lake that could sustain a water supply for years and years!

    STUPID QUESTION ALERT!
    There's a lake, flooding valuable farmland, sitting atop depleted aquifers. If numerous large bore holes were drilled from the lake bed down to the level of the depleted aquifers, would the lake drain into the aquifers filling them?

    • @TheWtikaiser
      @TheWtikaiser Рік тому +1

      Steinbeck asked the same question in East of Eden. This is nothing new to California. And while this is valuable farmland for the most part not a lot of long term damage. Only the most foolish were planting orchards and did so knowing the risk.

    • @TheWtikaiser
      @TheWtikaiser Рік тому +4

      As for the question I am no hydrologist but I assume it is not worth the effort. It naturally drains to the aquafer. We just need to stop sending the water elsewhere. They are currently sending water from the Kern River into the aqueduct where it will ultimately end up going to the ocean as all the water storage is filled to safe levels. We need more water storage but foolishly waste money on highspeed rail and creating more homelessness.

    Great report. Fair and balanced. Even touches on aquifer depletion. We can expect climate change to make water supplies more unsteady, which is going to be hard especially on orchard crops which take years to establish. Almonds are being ripped out all over the place.

    Leave it there. It’s not flooded, it’s taking back what once belonged to it.
    The first settlers of our coast really were dumb. Towns in the middle of extremely burn-happy redwood forests, a major industrial city in my state that lies in the lahar zone of the beautiful time-bomb that is Mt. Rainier (a literal SUPERVOLCANO)- and then there was this.
