Have you missed all those trees that bear oranges, lemons, limes, and grapefruit?


I don't think Florida's soil is good for growing much of anything other than palm trees and citrus trees. Florida is mostly just a giant sandbar.

Where I work right now our fresh green beans are coming from Florida as is the sweet corn. Strawberries are commercially grown also but we get California for some reason. Our oranges are coming from CA, grapefruit are Texas, lemons and limes are Mexico. Lettuce, spinach, artichokes, brussels sprouts, almost any fresh produce you see in your grocery store right now is from California or outside of the US. Before refrigeration these items were unheard of in Kansas at this time of year.

I went by this reservoir every weekend from 1996 to 2001 to play golf at Cinnabar Hills in San Jose when I lived in Mountain View CA. It was full and thriving!

How sad!

It's really dumb. The state is allowing Nestle to bottle essential water yet asking consumers to cut back.

We don't use much water here, so there's not much I can do personally, but as usual, the state is making poor decisions, IMO. Nestle is allegedly pulling 250 million gallons of water per year on a permit that expired 27 years ago.

I once failed to file my business permit with the city before December 31st and received a $2 million dollar tax bill, which I rectified immediately, yet Nestle has pulled billions of gallons of water on an expired permit?

That helps confirm a long held rumor that Nestle was draining all of the lakes and rivers for their candy processing and bottled water programs... people can make fun of Jesse Ventura all they want, but he was on this topic three years ago with his TruTv show.

The evidence was right there for anyone to see, Nestle had security at their water pumping sites like you'd expect at Fort Knox, it was disturbing to say the least.

Many people will laugh this off because of the source, but Jesse was on this case a long time ago, God bless him.

I wouldn't say they're totally responsible for it all, at all... but they are a MAJOR contributing factor, they are literally sucking lakes dry... laugh if you want, but do 15 minutes of googling and tell me different people.

I'm surprised to know that corn is grown in Florida having lived there and driving OTR.

I do know that most Florida oranges are used for juicing.

I used to pick up juice from the Coca-Cola plant in Auburndale. I've heard that California oranges are better for eating. Florida for juicing.

From what I've read Nestle is the most evil corporations on the face of the planet.

Washington Navels, from South America, thrive in California and do not grow well in Florida. I have 2 in my yard. Navels are seedless and are juicier/sweeter.

That expired permit means they are drawing a helluva lot more than 250 per year, they have a license to steal right now.

I think water's maybe one of the scarier but less publicized issues we face in the future.
I don't think it's an issue for our gen, our childrens gen, or even *likely* their childrens gen but it doesn't mean we should be super assholes dumping water onto weeds and grass so it's greener.

Perhaps in the meantime we'll come up with something amazing.
