Let’s pack up and get there we may need that water. Actually, we really don’t need any more water.
That’s because all the water that ever was on earth, is still on earth. Except of course, any water that was shipped to the space shuttle. The biggest myth perpetuated by environmental zealots is that earth is running out of water. That simply isn’t case. We have all the water we need, and all the water we’ll ever need right here on earth.
You’re right, we don’t need Europa for water.
Previously drought-stricken Israel now has an impending water surplus, due to new desalinization technology it developed. $0.58 for 1,000 liters of water! http://www.nextbigfuture.com/2016/07/israel-has-desalination-fresh-water.html
“The country faces a previously unfathomable question: What to do with its extra water? Enter desalination. The Ashkelon plant, in 2005, provided 127 million cubic meters (166 million cubic yards) of water. Hadera, in 2009, put out another 140 million cubic meters (183 million cubic yards). And now Sorek, 150 million cubic meters (196 million cubic yards). All told, desalination plants can provide some 600 million cubic meters (785 million cubic yards) of water a year, and more are on the way.
Desalination used to be an expensive energy hog, but the kind of advanced technologies being employed at Sorek have been a game changer. Water produced by desalination costs just a third of what it did in the 1990s. Sorek can produce a thousand liters of drinking water for 58 cents. Israeli households pay about US$30 a month for their water — similar to households in most U.S. cities, and far less than Las Vegas (US$47) or Los Angeles (US$58).
IDE, the Israeli company that built Ashkelon, Hadera and Sorek, recently finished the Carlsbad desalination plant in Southern California, a close cousin of its Israel plants, and it has many more in the works. Worldwide, the equivalent of six additional Sorek plants are coming online every year. The desalination era is here.”
