Calif. Reduces Water Usage, But Not Enough; Experts Say Greater Reduction Needed in Drought

 Californians are finally beginning to heed the state's urgent call for water conservation -- but not fast enough --  the LA Times website reports today (July 8, 2022).


After months of middling efforts, residents in May saved 3.1% more water than the same month in 2020, the baseline year against which current data are measured.    


Numbers for June showed an even greater statewide savings of 7.7%, but experts warned that more is needed as California enters the hottest, driest part of the year.
