There is not a shortage of drinkable water in the world

Would also help with rising seas. Lazy poor people unwilling to do their part.

But costs shouldn't matter if it helps save people.

We built a huge desalination plant for the Saudis.

Lefties are concerned now we're taking too much sea salt out for chips and daily use too.

The costs involved to desalinize water are very high.

But those are poors who keep having 12 kids despite their disgusting living situations

If you can't figure out how to get water I don't see why I should have to pay like 60 cents a day to get it for you

If I was thirsty I could tie rags to my legs and walk around in the dew grass and drink that like on survivor shows

But some people want to overlook that fact when it comes to our energy programs. We can save more people by investing money in a project that will help actually save lives as opposed to saving the earth.

I'm just trying to get a fix on why it is important to save the earth no matter the costs but it seems not very important to save actual lives by desalting water because of the expense. We have the technology and more than plenty of resources to make this happen.

Right now that's a pretty expensive and energy intensive process. About 50 cents a cubic meter (264.1 US gallons) is "good" - it's getting better.
