Coming Clean drinking water crisis in the 21st century.

[Taz]

There is plenty of bottle water...

Which are full of little plastic bits. YUM!

Don't drink it then. I will crush and break your hand if you are dying of thirst and try.

Dying of thirst? Where are you? Africa?

The Saudis have built over 300 recharge dams for capturing ground water..

I'm not a climate scientist. But, I seem to recall someone mentioning that it doesn't rain very much in Saudi Arabia.

But when it does rain it floods and kills people. Capturing groundwater is brilliant especially when they have the recharge capability

The point is, in the middle of one of the driest deserts on this planet, putting in additional water infrastructure makes more sense than, let's say, Washington State, where it rains 300 days a year.

Modern desalination plants produce clean water and cheap electricity as a by product.

Desalinization uses energy, it doesn't produce it.
If they're using nat gas, of course it's cheap.

The obvious source being nuclear power.

That's the next generation of desal plants. They already have double duty desal plants.

So why are you bringing up Washington State?

Last time I checked, it was in America ... unlike Saudi Arabia.

Yo'ure right you're not a climatologist ... it rains 483 days a year in Washington State (at least in the western part) ... [giggle] ...

Everyone here knows you are dying of thirst.
