SAGE News Clips: Drought ShamingDescription: During the 2015 California drought, residents are "drought shaming" not only their neighbors but also complete strangers for using water after Governor Jerry Brown mandated an overall 25% reduction in the use of water. In the exclusive neighborhood of Beverly Hills, Tony Corcoran posts videos on Twitter and YouTube to call out those violating the water ban in hopes to keep their lawns green. Real estate developer Dan Estes has gone as far as to create an app he calls "DroughtShameApp" but only shares the data with state officials, and not the online community. California resident Patricia Perez says the "shaming" is worth it "because we all have a stake in this, in our state."Click on the above link to access the Interactive eBook. Once you've
