Needs boycotting.

[Steely Tom]

What are they going to do with the salt?

Dumping it back in the ocean will probably result in arrests.

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

Wait til the accusations that the Jews are just doing this to extract the gold from the seawater.

[umgud]

This is just taking good money from our bullet train project.

[Resolute Conservative]

Shelf it next to trans fats...

[PA-RIVER]

Too funny.

Socialists start with the train crap at an early age.

I remember my older brother pushing trains when he was only 10 years old. It’s a control thing, hearding people like cattle and confining them to a box.

As if any such plant would ever get built - enviro nazis would be filing lawsuits on behalf of some "endangered" critter or another.

 

 

[SpaceBar]

Must be tough for NPR having to report on ‘jew-tech’.

[JimRed]

What are they going to do with the salt?

Have you priced coarse Kosher salt lately?

[markman46]

the desal plant is being build in san diego county outside of carlsbad

[Red Badger]

[RayChuang88]

Desalinization, however, requires a LOT of electric power to make it viable. Maybe it's time to perfect the molten salt reactor technology so we could build desalinization plants that could make billions of gallons of potable water easily from seawater.

[lapsus calami]

 

 

Seriously?? What the heck - the nazis are falling down on the job over there. Maybe they're waiting for the union contracts to get fulfilled enough before they try to block it from going into operation. Stranger things have happened.

 

 

[captain_dave]

Will the BDS leftists boycott water in California? (Please say “yes”)

[RinaseaofDs]

“molten salt reactor”

Dingdingdingdingdingding!!!

THE WINNER!!!!

Yup, Thorium LFTR Plants every 250 miles just back away from the coast would do nicely. They’d have power and fresh water in the bargain. Even if all the water went to Ag use, it would free up water for residential.

[CondorFlight]

California needs these plants a lot more than it needs a $68 billion dollar speed train to nowhere.

But which will it buy?

[Tucker39]

Better yet, kosher or not, it’s SEA salt. Very salable.

[MrB]

You KNOW that some enviroleftist will find something wrong with desalinating sea water for human use...

[353FMG]

Why not take a look at the seawater desalination plant near Jubail, Saudi Arabia. There is an entire village built around the facilities just to support its large (Italian) staff. The plant has been on-stream since the late 1970’s Desalinated water is sent to Saudi interior through 6’ diameter concrete pipelines.
Also take a look at the Abu Dhabi facilities where the water is used to irrigate their golf courses in the middle of the desert. Seawater desalination is away of life in the M.E.
