The article discusses drought in California as of March 28, 2014, suggesting that lessons can be learned from the Millennium Drought in Australia from 1997-2009. Topics include the economic impact of the Millennium Drought, the role of water reforms including water markets, irrigation infrastructure, and water entitlements to critical habitats and populations, and public reaction to drought.
