California has a number of operational desalination plants and several significant projects currently in development. Desalination isn’t just some cure-all, it’s very expensive and comes with an environmental toll
I hope you are correct. I was reminded of the Marin County desalination plant that was abandoned in the 1990s “because it started raining again”. The whole thing just reminds me of the slow transition to get off fossil fuels that had so many false starts. Anyone else remember the GM EV1 (also in California, also the 1990s)?
