John McMullen Show: Chuck Parker, Salton Sea Coalition. June 11, 2021

  • Summary

  • There is a race against time to mitigate an environmental and economic disaster in the Southeastern corner of the Coachella Valley. The Salton Sea, the largest lake in the State of California, has been disappearing for decades. The combination of pollution, toxic runoff from the agriculture industry, diversion of the water resources being sucked up by the city of San Diego, and the drought conditions that plague the Golden State, has left the one-time watersports and recreationally rich body of water turning into a vast wasteland featuring noxious air quality problems for the entire Southland. There are several entities that are advocating a "sea to sea" solution that would restore the Salton Sea to its once glorious state by connecting it via canal to Mexico's Sea of Cortez. On this episode, John McMullen talks with Chuck Parker, one of the grassroots coordinators from the Salton Sea Coalition, who is an advocate for this solution.
