I still support desalinization plants, and the state should try to herd localities to invest in them.
Israel is headed toward a large portion of their fresh water coming from the Mediterranean. If they can do it...

“...the state should try to herd localities to invest in them...”?
I guess that this would involve subsidies AND MANDATES (just like ethanol and solar energy)-—well, hell, DONALD TRUMP (BLESSED BE HIS NAME) would be all about that. Of course, we should all ignore the fact that subsidies and mandates cause maldistribution of investments, lead to a product (e.g., water) being produced in a manner that is NOT the most efficient and increases costs. But if Donald wants it...it would have to be sacrosanct.
I’m sure Ted Cruz would say it is up to the state but, personally, would be wondering “why the hell don’t they increase the capacity of their reservoirs as a longer term way to mitigate the problem”.
