Although California has been in drought for several years, state residents for the first time ranked water shortage as California's most pressing issue in a survey released Wednesday. Nearly 7 in 10 of those surveyed think water—or lack of it—is a big problem for California, ranking it more critical than issues like jobs and housing. And hardly any of those surveyed thought that the recent mandatory water cuts imposed by the governor were too strict, with 36 percent thinking the cuts should go even further. [SFGate]
