Southern California has too many people living in an area which cannot sustain them.
what do they do with all the salt?
the newest RO desalination plants are coming in at $650@acre -foot. (By way of comparison colorado water for LA comes in at about $450@acre foot)
The feds are about to launch a major R&D drive to bring desalination costs down much further--as a lot of new tools have been developed and are currently laying around to be tested and developed.
DeConcini of New Mexico is going to give a speech on the matter on Wednesday 7/14.
But go ahead, bring in more illegals. Bring them ALL in!
ping!
El Nino is our friend.
You'd think that comparing the cost of immigration enforcement against the cost of desalinization, or the cost of a rapid rail system, or the cost of a huge electric inter-tie and grid would be a no brainer wouldn't you?
Desalination plants, water catchments, pipelines, aqueducts, reservoirs, etc = jobs and water.
