In this interview, Reinette Senum is joined by citizen-sleuth Elaine Buxton, who has uncovered where California’s water has gone, how bad laws make it “legal,” and how Californians need to wake up before the collective well goes dry.
Through laborious research of public records, official documents, and government meetings, Buxton exposes what is happening under our noses: California has water, lots of it, and the drought is simply the cover story for the state’s Great Water Heist.
