US-ENVIRONMENT-POLITICS-WARMING-DROUGHT
An oil derrick is seen near vineyards north of the Grapevine in central California's Kern County where the Chrisman Wind Gap Pumps, part of the California Aqeduct System, lifts water about 800 feet up the mountainside to begin its crossing of the Tehacahpis to deliver water into Southern California, on February 3, 2014. The United States government announced on February 5 a new system of regional hubs to tackle the effects of climate change as the country's southwest battles a historic drought. In January, California declared a state of emergency due to what could be the worst drought in a century for the state, and which has prompted fears of lost harvests and devastating forest fires.
