Imagine getting 7.2 billion dollars in funding for a Water Bond, and using that to blow up Dams instead of building new ones. Under under the demolition plan, $200 million will come from California and Oregon ratepayers, and $250 million will come from a voter-approved California water bond, with no liability for PacifiCorp. $250 million dollars meant to build dams is used to destroy the 4 Klamath River Dams



Safe and reliable fresh water isn't nearly as abundant as most people assume. This is just the tip of the iceberg...


Not when you let farms and oil companies poison the water source for backhanders, no.
