This is Getting SCARY!!! Lake Mead is Drying Up! Part 2 

Always good to be prepared for anything 🤙🏼

Surprised those mansions their landscape water usage is in the millions much less golf courses in the valley wonder when they will be restricted...

I would just move up to Utah

@@milotorres6894 surprisingly Vegas isn’t the issue, most water used from the lake is from californias agriculture. They get their own water and lake mead/lake Powell will be saved

Yeah guess where the water comes from in s. California that you grow your fruits and vegetables with, same source as ours, the Colorado River. California takes 40% while Nevada 2%

exactly, better open up that border, we need more people here in the southwest... that current lineup has the same sense as the condom I flushed this morning.. just moronic in every sense of the word, fuggen forest gump is the president

Exactly, plus where does all the used water go ? I hope they clean it before it goes back into the system ?

@tthams73 All good info with one exception. The statement “Precipitation rate in the west has not changed in 125 years” is absolutely false. When originally built and water was allocated in the Colorado River dam system, water was allocated based on historically wet years. This was not known at the time and this miscalculation in conjunction with population growth and increased use set up this water resource for the current failure we are seeing. Scientific tree ring research has shown the occurrence of “mega droughts” is common in the west and that we are currently in the midst of a 25 year drought with no real knowledge of how much longer it might last. Colorado is my ancestral homeland (Ute & Spanish Ancestry tracing our roots back thousands of years), and just in my short time on this earth I've seen the lack of snow and rainfall in southern Colorado over the past 25 years or so. It's absolutely an inflow (drought) problem compounded by population growth and urban sprawl. While I'm not a climate change believer...I do believe the climate changes over time as shown through historical evidence.....we are all going to need to prioritize our use of water (drinking, agricultural and environmental) as it's clear this resource is scarce, and unreliable, particularly areas such as Vegas who rely on other states for their water!

I wonderhow much of this decrease can be directly contributed to almond farms, avocado farms, and Las Vegas fountains lol

We should sink cali into the ocean. Place is a shit hole anyway

Don't forget about the misters on the strip to cool tourists down

I just read about the plan to hold back the water in Lake Powell to keep the hydro electric generation working. That makes a bit of sense. What doesn't make sense is the plan to "credit" Lake Mead with the water it would have got when deciding on restrictions to consumers. That will be the end for lake leisure users, because it will just empty.

Actually Las Vegas, the Strip specifically, is able to reuse 90% of their water. Vegas has a really smart and efficient way to use water. Unfortunately most of the water goes to California and Arizona and Mexico.

But yall dont brush your teeth

@@jimsmith7198 someone had to say it

As an Australian I can't imagine that lol.

Pennsylvanian here. Perpetually surrounded by streams and lakes. And it's always terribly muggy as a result of it. =/

That's why the call it a desert. This is artificial and not sustainable with larger populations.

yea i live in a area where we have rivers and lakes everywhere, and wetlands. but this lake drying up so fast is crasy

Well you dont have Los Angeles stealing water from everywhere its the main reason why California is in a permanent drought

100%

You need help.

one of the great lakes is a major water supply, its been dropping fast for several years now, and the sad thing about that one is, that its china owned nestle pure life water draining water out of the lake, bottling it, and selling back to the public as purified water for water they are already paying for on their water bills

@@paulvalentine1483 What does he need help with?

What a great idea, I have a colleague at a large University, I'm going to forward this vlog to them and see where it goes, it is very useful first hand evidence.

YES! THANK YOU! This is the kind of thing that I've saying been saying to all the overly-cynical bullshit about how the world supposedly sucks and this and that and the other, but you, good sir, get the facts and are speaking the truth! Keep on, my man!

It was a paradise when the Colorado River still flowed. Especially in Glen Canyon.

Live here, this place sucks, only here for the money, 6 figure or I would be gone

@@vegasdirtpusher1124 yep, that's what I did. Retired and took my pensions and got outta Dodge! It's different now though. Way harder, very expensive to make a move. But just do what you are doing then when timings are right bail out! After you milk it very good of course. Even from 2011 till now I bet it got very much expensive to live there. Casinoland as us old timers called it changed like night and day! Good luck!

I went to college in Utah from 1979 to 1983, went to Vegas and Lake Mead several times a year. Lake Mead was completely full and a fantastic break from the Casinos. We tent camped close to the water, took our ski boat out most of the day, then headed to the Casinos for evening hours and night hours. We had fake ID's, were 19 and 20 year olds, jumped into hotel hot tubs until we got kicked out then just went to the next hotel hot tub, no cops called back then so we just kept hot tub jumping! , played nickel and penny slots to get free drinks, no problems! The years were 1981 and 1982! Vegas and Lake Mead were easy party places, no hassles, no problems, tons of drinks and miles of water on Mead. Dang we had it good!!!!!! Sadly, America will never see days like those again.

@@travelguy1564 Bingo! Bullseye! Jackpot! My girl and I did the same thing from 1978 to 1988! Exactly as you described it. Free food, free drinks, free shows, free movies, free buffets, free everything if you played your cards right. Many comps in those days. Casinoland was great then. So was Lake Mead. Hemenway harbor, Calville Bay, Lake Mead Marina, Boulder Beach etc.... We were 18 and 19 and played slots, mostly penny, nickel and the notorious dime machines that easily jammed up. Ha ha ha. No problems as you said. No security, no cops, no carding no nothing. That's when Las Vegas was paradise. Not anymore. Just lucky we lived it. Fun times for sure. To be a teenager and enjoy the casinos was like a dream.

Yah by design! Yep, they are with holding water from us. Great coverage. Vegas sits on a huge natural aquifer. Thats why they allow more homes & malls to be built. Water that normally goes to this lake has been diverted. We live on a planet thats 2/3rds water. Mid west, north east, east coast hav more water than they can handle. There are 2 water desalinization plants in Calif, they wont let them run. They are also dismantling dams in Calif. they control our water & power and those things are about to get VERY expensive. Bill Gates & Warren Buffet are building power generation plants (electricity).

They'll find out soon enough.

it's not just vegas, you heard him, 80 million people rely on this water. why? it's Lake Mead, it's Hoover Dam's reservoir. This reservoir feeds Los Angeles, most of Arizona, Southern California, Nevada, New Mexico, probably parts of Utah, and perhaps even parts of Texas. This is bad, real bad.

2 of the three water pipes that feed Vegas are out of the water now.

@@fartsoundeffect5013 do you research before making a unfactul comment

The government can just geoengineer like they ways do and seed clouds and make it rain

That's what Californians do best

God diverted the water to Yellowstone's flooding Yogi bear is now waterskiing

@@donaldstrubhar4697 lol, poor Mr. Ranger.

Praying has worked all these years but no more, 😝

Even a record year won't stop the reduction of Lake levels.

that is about as ignorant a comparison of anything I can think. let's say there was no natural gas or oil. it ran out today. you be starving to death shortly thereafter. but hey, enjoy that water fast!

I was thinking the same thing, thank you

Resident of Duluth Minnesota and I am very grateful i live next to lake superior

Literally talking to my friends about buying land and building a fortress to protect our resources rn. LMK if u want in lol

You aren't in a desert sherlock! It RAINS where you are! This is happening because it's an ARID climate and the water is being used/wasted to run all the BS in Las Vegas!

Please leave your california politcs in California. We dont want nc turned into liberal mess.

Sure and once people loose their homes and move, the property will be purchased by?? And then watch things come back, what we once thought as conspiracy, is not!

@@kookyjoeb5524 - they tap into the areas and redistribute it. People can do that to aquifiers- and sell it in plastic bottles! Or steal it onto their property. All saud- there is never a water shortage- only terrible people preventing you from getting it. Govt needs to go.

That’s true. I forgot about those ridiculous homes they’re still building.

A lot of people are clueless about a lot of things

Really?! I'm in Canada and I'm aware...

For sure. I'm a barber in Vegas and everyone just says "yeah I heard it pretty low right now. Think the rain will bring it back to normal?" They don't even know the scope of how much water we would need to hit net neutral alone

I've been seeing it all over the news and social media so unless your living under a rock most people in Vegas are aware

News? This is the News of our time. The other stuff is media/programing/propaganda. No disrespect intended. Stay safe all and prepare.

Why it was not supposed to be there anyway . We are just guests here .

That was back in 1983 when the water overflowed the spillways for the first time since the damn was built.

Do you remember the billboards years ago, that had the people with straws drinking out of our lakes? That’s when they were floating the pipeline from the lakes to the west coast.

If you are a democrat please leave your politics in Nevada. We don't want a blue state.

Plenty of rain in Florida.

I’m trying to love my family to Miami as well my husband loved it his first time outside of California

@@mayalcaraz9862 don’t move to Miami lol

I just left Florida SW Coast and moved north.....too many people moving into FL....27,000 newbies in Lee County this past year! Storms are getting stronger....too much flooding now.... getting hotter & more humid longer... Insurance, property tax & housing costs are still moving higher,.....and always the never ending rain season...12" in last storm ! Now I sleep with my windows open with fresh air ! ...and I want my kids to have roots in an region that they don't need to leave due to climate changing.

Actually they want rights to an underground lake that is mostly in Utah. But they really need to get into check. It's a desert they should be building subterranean homes and only have gardens that will help sustain them and not lawns. Whoever thought grass was a good idea is a moron!

They can rely on trucks supplying much in future.

Trucked water came from Warwick's Connolly Dam 50k away not from Brisbane. Warwick has 2 dams and the largest was critically low. 80L per day per person for years. Was very depressing.

You are hilarious. Lake Mead is a created lake in the desert. It was never going to make it with millions of people competing for water. That area has been desert before millions swept in and now somehow it is about the environment? Riiight.

Sorry for your loss God blesss

Nice, I got a couple monsters with my bow by the air assault course. When I was there in 04 they would only allow 2 hunters in that area so it was hard to get but really good. Thank you for your service

Uh yeah Mead supplies not just almost all the water but 80-90% of the power for vegas... Literally it will cease to exist in the next 5-10 years barring crazy intervention by the feds/Army Corps of Engineers. Vegas will be the new Salton Sea.

Water Pact caused this destruction. Agreeing to artificially put more water downstream than was coming into the lake is the Causation that could've been remedied two decades ago. #Idiocracy 101

If I was not so lazy I would have obtained my atmospheric physics degree. My Myers-Briggs personality is intj are better known as The Mastermind. We are very rare roughly 2.9% of the general population with this personality type. We are the analyst the physics and the engineers of the world. One of the job descriptions atmospheric physicist balls under my personality type. We look everything from a Global Perspective hey we look at patterns. Globally every river and every Lake and every Mountain Top is loosing either water or ice Lakes are disappearing worldwide on the 36th parallel. Simply because Earth is overheating and most of that heat energy or 90% of the heat energy from the atmosphere is ending up in the world's oceans. A total of 17 * 10 to the 20th power joules heat energy is being absorbed by the world's oceans. That is equivalent of 5 thermal nuclear bombs per second. That heat energy that's ending up in the world's oceans is changing the weather patterns around the planet. That is why self Americans are migrating out of South America. Lanina plus a vast warming planet is denying any kind of measurable rain for their crops. Either the people in those countries stay and starve to death or they have to migrate and that's what's happening on a global scale

Or just stop living in an uninhabitable area of the US

Vegas, the most beautiful ghost town

When I looked at the average consumption per head for cities in the area it was many times higher than the average consumption of Melbourne Australia. We have always had the spectre of droughts and a few years ago there was a goal to reduce consumption to below 200 Litres per day. After that the city got down to 155 Litres per day per person. Living in a dry area I have had an average of 35 litres per day for the last 40 years. So there is a LOT of potential saving. There is plenty of water for drinking but some other uses are going to have to be controlled. Which is an anathema to individual freedom USA.

they will kiII us all in the end anyways

we have enough desalinization plants in the world to waterthe planet for 1000 years with no problems, we also have vast amounts of antartic ice to fallback on. stop beleiving the hype.

This is a drought which has been going since 2000 and is expected to end around 2030. Don't worry.

i love ur username

People don't give a fuck, that's it

I have a thing about avoiding the desert although I've not lived in one. It's like a natural avoidance of arid conditions and necessity of water. People haven't had to worry about real problems for a few generations. They get fat and complacent. I would do what you can to catch water (if it ever rains) cuz weather manipulation is more of a factor than people realize. Ho Chih Min trail was hit with storm cloud seeding in Vietnam. Washed it out. Hurricane sat off the East Coast for a week or so in same spot a couple years ago. They got that shit down. Fix up something for catching water cuz clouds can be seeded. We get it here in Washington state. Seeded and it rains that night or the next day. Rinse & repeat. They'll need to adjust water if they care about all of you surviving out in those areas. Until then, enjoy the hot insanity ofthe damn desert! - your Northwest Neighbor and Weather Augmentation watcher.

Its all because of greed, its the root of all evil

@@korbinscott And greed is a response to fear.

No one needs to fish in Lake Mead. It's not built for that reason.

You stole the water!!!

Lie. The solutions are pipedreams, too expensive, an infrastructure that congress will not pass, and energy claims that are impossible to marry with already huge taxes on power. No way. Wishful thinking is foolishness. Listen to what you may perceive as negative. Water is a real issue for those who can't afford overage fines on limited meters. Get used to these terms if you plan on living in the southwest & continue to encourage travel & relocation to the region. Tourism cannot co-exist with sustainable permanent residency. (No, I don't believe in "global warming" necessarily.) I've resided in NUMEROUS cities & metropolitan areas that sell out their tax-paying residents for a myth. All the way back to "Mt. St. Helen's WILL NOT erupt" killed people & decimated businesses on a smaller scale...to New York City's rapture of businesses during Covid on a very large one. Lie to yourself & believe the lies. I've lived in Vegas for short periods of time in the span of 4 decades. This is not to be taken lightly BY CITIZENS. No one in Vegas or the government will ever SAY anything about a drought until it's WAY too late for you. Your resources will be directed to tourism til the bitter end. Period.

Tucson is a disaster on all fronts. I wouldn’t tout it as a model for anything.

Spearheading what...? New home development all over the place in Tucson area. Water reserve is only there until you use it up. After that you're squeezing cactus

Just move from Havasu! It was getting scary to think of living in the hottest place with water dropping and being shipped to LA. I lived in the middle of farmland in CA when the last massive drought was hitting hard and the local municipality in Hanford started their policing and restrictions. Get out while you can.

We typically get a small monsoon season in the summer where the rain basically dries off the ground 10 mins after it stops, but I don't think we've even had that the past few years.

P.S. I just checked UK reservoir levels, and given I've been in shorts since February and surprisingly they are at high levels.

@@dano8613 uh…..it’s call rain or monsoon!

The problem with the US is that our egos are too big to learn lessons from others countries. We have to make our own mistakes. We are always reinventing the wheel. It’s ridiculous.

@@sigsin1 South Africa isn't exactly the best example of what TO DO unless kill everybody who is white sounds like a sound business model. "Kill the boer" or Kill the farmer is still sung at the major political parties meetings.

There are few if any springs in the Las Vegas area. Even if you go to the nearest mountains, they are without any trees, let alone water. When you go over toward California or Utah and like places you're not going to find much water there either, because of snow pack has been lacking. Drought out here in the Southwest means precisely that and it affects every piece of land, high and low.

Could you tell us what the top 3 things you think we should do?

Knowing Americans, they'll just try to shoot at clouds tbh

yep

Vegas actually isn't the issue. Vegas reuses almost all of its water. The vast majority is going to California, Arizona, and Mexico

My brother in law worked on that 'drain tunnel' in the middle of lake mead for 5 yrs. about 10 yrs ago.. I wonder if someone is draining the lake?

I blame Arizona and California. All the farms in the desert. They're literally growing hundreds of thousands of acres of alfalfa and other cash crops in the phoenix desert. All from the Colorado which feeds lake Mead. No water regulation on farms. None of that water is recycled. California used to be a marsh but farmers messed that up too.

Yep, they are with holding water from us. Great coverage. Vegas sits on a huge natural aquifer. Thats why they allow more homes & malls to be built.

80’s were amazing…so much better than now

@@truthseeker2321 yessssss!!!!

Agreed. I'm in southern Indiana and its not that bad here either. But I have noticed my pond level is lower than its ever been, I've been here 20 years. Its lower than when I moved here. Checked for leaks several times, its just not at its old level. The rains come fine in spring, but it seems we get mini droughts every summer..

Praying for that won't change much, I would pray for people to wake up to the matrix they are in, and to move on from indoctrinated desires and missions in life. Without a change in how we approach life, we will only further perish. Seek Jesus, and ask yourself about the 1800's, and ww2. History in general. These two things will carry you very quickly, to a realization that the dependency we have as a society on the government, is by design, in order to control us all and make rare things that should be a given, and to manipulate us with technology, giving an amazing route of propaganda and manipulation. I personally also believe that half of what the fallen angels controlling this world do, is based on masking the reasoning of Godly events. Punishments of sin...we all know the story of sodom and gommorath, what makes you think it's any different today? When humans do not even know their Creator? Let alone what he says about how to live.

Then Wake the Fk up and realize that it's a certain group of people (Criminal Scumbags) who deliberately causing the "Drought"!

All states east of the Texas dry line are seeing far more moisture originating from the Gulf of Mexico. You will see more record flooding in the coming years. Manmade Climate Change is causing a massive change in the global climate.

The lake fills from the snow in Colorado in the winters or when it melts in the spring anyway

there’s the official lake mead website run by state water officials where they document the lake level each day. There’s even graphs and charts. You could, in theory, search out that website gor yourself if, in fact, you really are serious within your own self about looking at such daily updates. These resources already exist. This man’s channel os outdoors and hunting and fishing entertainment oriented. Not oriented to tracking daily lake levels. He did this video for the “shock value” and “entertainment value” because that is the goal of his channel, to get the most views possible using various types of videography methods. If a bunch of people watch, he’ll do another lake level videp for more views. That’s his primary purpose, as a youtuber.

@@nozrep Spot on

why do you think conditions in a desert, with a man-made lake, are going to effect people nationwide? its an extreme possibility that there were never meant to be so many people living in a desert are. there are simply too many people for that particular eco system to support.

@@johnnyrebel3340 lack of water? its a desert. its defined by not having much water. its not a plot, its fricken mother nature, goofball.

You can’t prep for water conditions.

The fear of running out of water is a myth. Primary water has been available to us since the dawn of type. Look up the book new water for a thirsty world by Michael H. Salzman. It was burned in the 1960s because the option to refill the lakes for free was presented to numerous states, but that wouldn't create full control over the people. Make it look like the surface water is running out and you can control the people...even if billions of new water is coming out of the earth everyday. Best wishes. Don't fall for the fear and drill your own primary water well.
