california will never be the same. i also found a story where school children were studying pio pico in their classrooms, and his accomplishments and what he meant to the state. they went out and they were collecting nickels, door to door, to try to build up a legal fund for him. because he had -- everything he possessed, he'd lost. he also got an offer by the chicago -- the world's fair in chicago, to come in and be displayed as the last of his generation, the last of the californios. he wrote a scathing reply. i never saw him having any antagonism to any race. but he said, if they think they can put me in a tent and show me like a freak at five cents a bit, they have another thing coming. he was quite naturally angry at this point, having lost everything, unable to leave his children much. but at his death, at 93 years of age, i read in the los angeles time a beautiful mass took place, where they sang. all the old families gathered. they celebrated this individual's life. i think he's very indicative of that period i

there you go, we just solved the water problem. >> but just like cook, californiaments california's pet means they may get their facility. >> duarte geraldino, waste water, i don't know if she was talking about california or ocean county. and that's a whole different discussion about whether waste water is better than desalinated water. but i don't even know what 4 million acre feet is. how much is this? >> industry jargon. consider a lake the size of a football deep, where the water is only one foot deep. that is an acre-feet, that's what the state schooled in 2010. >> water that goes out in the ocean, waste water and i'm assuming the opposite side of that argument is let's treat that waste water. waste water does get treatand consumed. is that a better plan? >> a lot of effort is being put into waste water and that's one ideal plan. however as we grow more and more efficient the amount of waste water we produce is shrinking. that in and of itself is not a solution. >> what does poseidon say about this controversy, request they have been doing this for 15 years to get that one in san d

the state of california. we have a maximum capacity of 160 inmates. the camp is about an hour east of los angeles, nestled high up in the mountains, an elevation of 500 feet. at first glance a barbed wire fence surrounding the 27 acre property. the only clue that the site houses inmates. >> what would you say is the biggest misconceptions out there? >> i don't think the nation nose how much they contribute to the conservation programme. when they are saving those homes, the community doesn't care whether they are inmates or free people they are thankful. >> close to 34-00 wildfires blackened portions of the state. the fire season is still young. on this day smoke from the nearby lake fire burning on the other side of the mountains could be seen and smelt for miles. that fire would go on to scorch more than 30,000 acres. during our visit, a team of exhausted firefighters marched into camp. a crew weighed down by equipment, wearing distinctive gear was weighed down on the city of fresno. >> my pack weighs anywh

in a few minutes we'll talk with university of california president janet napolitano and california community college chancellor bryce harris about the challenges facing their students. first, scientists have uncovered new information on the impact of california's drought. scott shafer spoke with science editor craig miller about the findings. >> craig miller, welcome. >> thanks, scott. >> begin with the study from columbia university. scientists there saying climate change caused by us made our drought worse. how did that happen? what's that connection? >> california had kind of a double whamny. 2013 was the driest year on record. 2014 was the warmest year on record. here we were already two years into drought. any residual moisture just gets baked out of the soil by that excess heat and sucked up by the plants and it's gone. setting the stage for worst wildfires, tougher to grow things, all these drought impacts become that much worse in that situation. in reporting in the past, i've tried to ask the question, yeah, but how much worse does this actually make the drought? nobody really had a

>>'s most recent work is on california. i think california actually has a unique role in the world. when they change policy to become more efficient with her carbon use by using less gasoline, for example, and the rest of the united states is soon to follow. when the united states makes a change, the rest of the world is soon to follow. california surprisingly has a large ripple effect, i believe. one thing we need to do globally is use fossil fuels in a sustainable way. i don't think that should go against anybody's political beliefs, do sustainable living makes sense. digging up nonrenewable resource and burning until it's gone, doesn't. drought perspective, california can do a lot more locally. by using water sustainably. there's been a lot, as we said, a sustainable ground water use in california. currently, actions are being taken to try to start regulations for groundwater extraction in california. what california tends to do, once a gets what again, they tend to forget they just had a really catastrophic drought the reminded them how vulnerable they are. it is important calif

as california's number two agricultural export. and california is the world's leading producer of almonds. not a bad bang for the buck, says baldocchi who would like to change the script on these popular nuts. dennis: solutions to these problems are more complex than simple bromides, almonds are bad or almonds are good. we have to really think more carefully about what crops you want to grow, and how much water they'll use and what are the true costs of this. sam: the almond board of california says that when you account for factors like soil type and rainfall the crop really only needs about 3 feet of water per acre, not 4. either way, almonds do require a lot of water they're just not at the top of the list for california crops. in a very similar vein state leaders want to preserve more than water. they'd also like to protect our air quality. governor brown has set his sights sky high for california matching the most aggressive carbon cutbacks in the world. is this plan achievable, or is the governor setting us up to fail? jerry
