Desalinating sea water in order to replenish the sweet water reserves we ourselves have degraded with unsustainable practices is pure madness. What needs to be done instead is to stop interfering with the water cycle [0], let rain water infiltrate the ground, recharge aquifers and restore soil moisture. In order to do that we need to stop the habit of making the ground impermeable (with cement and tar), and stop sending rain water to the sewers to be thrown back to the ocean, and then plant trees. Lots and lots of trees. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_cycle https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_cycle
