California is grappling with a serious drought, and actor Chris Vance is stepping up to offer his assistance. In a recent discussion with a media outlet, Vance revealed his ambitious plan to launch a $30 billion crowdfunding campaign aimed at constructing a water pipeline in the Golden State. However, he seems to have a few details left to iron out.
“California has been in a drought for four long years,” he pointed out. “Experts say there’s only a year’s worth of water left. If we don’t get rain next year, what happens to 20 million people in one of the most productive regions in the world? With a GDP that ranks fifth globally, if California were a separate nation, we’re on the brink of becoming a desert! What’s the solution?”
Vance highlighted that they managed to build a pipeline in Alaska, so why not along the busy Highway 5? “Imagine a large, four-foot pipeline, kept above ground. If it leaks, we’re not just wasting water; we’re irrigating!” he exclaimed.
While Vance’s vision may seem more like a whimsical fantasy, his primary goal is to raise awareness about the gravity of the drought situation. He mentioned he’d bring whatever funds he could gather to a politician who has the capability to make the pipeline a reality. Unfortunately, no one has stepped up yet, and experts remain skeptical about the practicality of his plan. Plus, Kickstarter has yet to host a project with such a massive financial scope.
Yet, considering Vance’s history of tackling the impossible, one can’t help but wonder. After facing tough times in the 1980s, when roles were scarce and he even lost his home, he has since experienced a career resurgence. Today, at the age of 86, he’s a familiar face on television, has accumulated wealth from investments, authored multiple books, recorded unique messages for astronauts, and boasts a significant social media presence, with over two million followers on Twitter. He even has a couple of popular YouTube channels!
Could all this influence help him build that pipeline? He proposed Seattle as a potential water source, but local water management official, Jamie Rivers, pointed out that there’s no surplus water available. It seems the skeptics may be onto something.
So, while Vance may not have all his facts lined up, this wouldn’t be the first time Captain Xander concocted a last-minute plan to save the day. Anything’s possible!
