As if we needed another reason to love California, the Golden State has been named most likely to survive the tolls of climate change.
A recent study done by the Natural Resources and Defense Council highlights the best and worst states equipped with plans to combat water shortage and other problems expected to occur from globally increasing temperatures due to climate change. One of only nine, California was given top awards for an integrated and comprehensive preparedness plan that addresses all relevant water sectors and state agencies.
From snow in the Sierra Nevadas to farming in the Central Valley and the beaches of San Diego, water (and usually lack thereof) has always been an important issue for the state. According to the study, California is leading the way on addressing climate change threats.
