The Epoch Times: Should We Water Our Plants in a Drought?
Plants constantly use water, but the soil acts as a sponge that holds water for plants to access as needed. Different soil types hold different amounts of water and air, and plants are designed for specific soil types. Plants have various strategies for coping with water shortage, such as wilting, dropping leaves or fruit, and going dormant. Thunderstorm rain may not be sufficient if the soil has dried out, and dormant plants may struggle to grow roots to absorb rainwater. It is important to observe signs of water stress in plants and water accordingly to keep them alive and healthy.

Forbes: Do’s And Don’ts For State And Local Governments On Housing
State and local governments should stop imposing fees and mandates on new housing and instead support direct cash-based approaches to help renters. The problem with housing is a lack of supply in the face of rising demand. The solution is to either reduce jobs and population growth or increase production. Inclusionary zoning, which taxes new housing production, is not the answer. Instead, state governments can preempt local cities from imposing these requirements. A better solution is to treat vouchers like cash and have fewer restrictions for both housing providers and residents. State and local funds should be used to match vouchers for a pilot program to evaluate its effectiveness. The focus should be on erasing complicated rules and regulations to allow more housing production.
