BREAKING - Parched California Pours Mega-Millions Into Desalination Tech

drought, amigo

The article says it costs a billion dollars to build. They could build 75 or more of these plants along the cost for the cost of that god damn stupid train. The train that will cost as much to travel from LA to SF as a plane flight, but take 3+hours instead of 1. The train that was voted in at around 14 billion on the ballot but now closer to 75 billion.

Keep this going, maybe someone could get a revised ballot measure on the next vote, swap the train for water.

Just keep paying your exorbitant taxes to your lib-tard masters until you fall into the sea.

You can filter out the salt, but nothing can filter out the Raioactive deuterium. Also known as 2O.
It is radio active and part of what makes water, water.

So now think about all the Fukushima waste water in plumes reaching California and no one will drink that cool aid!

Given the amount of saltwater on this planet, I wonder why this hasn't been a mainstay for all coastal areas worldwide already. The tech is obviously there.

We aren't running out of water. We are running out of water that is easily brought to the tap in many areas.

Cost is a big factor. They won't build 'em if people have alternatives because the water goes from $10/1000 gallons to $80/1000 gallons.

Understandable, but as with all newer technology, early developments bring a much higher cost for R&D and implementation. If we could get past this stage and roll it out on a grand scale, costs would come down.
