http://www.tampabay.com/news/politics/state/article980319.ece While not directly related to energy, this may mark an important shift in thinking about water withdrawals in Florida. With that said, I think it's very important to note that the bottled water industry accounts for a very small fraction of the freshwater used in Florida, and there is little reason to believe that tougher bottled water regulation can substitute for broad-scale water use restrictions in Florida. In my opinion, effective water management will require that water used for irrigation of private lawns and yards be priced much higher than it is currently. -- Jason M.
