Can desalination solve the global water crisis?

We have the desalination technology to transform seawater into freshwater. So why are we not using it to solve the global water crisis? We're destroying our environment at an alarming rate. But it doesn't need to be this way. Our new channel Planet A explores the shift towards an eco-friendly world — and challenges our ideas about what dealing with climate change means. We look at the big and the small: What we can do and how the system needs to change. Every Friday we'll take a truly global look at how to get us out of this mess. #PlanetA​​ #Desalination #WaterCrisis 0:00 Water shortages around the world 1:54 History of desalination 2:25 Types of desalination 3:15 Reasons for water scarecity 4:33 Desalination plants today 7:11 The problem with brine 8:50 Potential of desalination 9:46 Cape town today Read More (Links): Historic background of desalination and renewable energies: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science...
