There’s other ways to mitigate that cost. Israel for instance runs many desalination plants from if I recall correctly solar power. We could do the same with solar and wind.

California could do the same. https://www.waterworld.com/wastewater/article/16202781/israel-reuses-nearly-90-of-its-water https://www.waterworld.com/wastewater/article/16202781/israe...
