Since 2005, Israel has opened four desalination plants, with a fifth set to go online later this year. Roughly 35 percent of Israel's drinking-quality water now comes from desalination. That number is expected to exceed 40 percent by next year and hit 70 percent in 2050.

Common sense isn’t all that common, and apparently even less so in Cali?

With all of the special interests and bureaucracy in CA, it would take at least 5 years to approve a new desalination plant - ask Carlsbad and Huntington Beach.
