Precious water: As more of the world thirsts, luxury water becoming fashionable among the elite

SAMTSE, Bhutan (AP) — Monsoon rains have finally passed and floods blocking the lone dirt road have retreated enough for a small truck to climb these Himalayan foothills to a gurgling spring. It spews water so fresh that people here call it nectar.

We need fusion to happen now, cheaply and relatively locally to facilitate desalination plants everywhere.

I posted an article a few days ago about Japan making strides in fusion. It’s still not ready though. I want to live to see Star Trek.

The salty by-products are a huge problem, especially if you scale massively. I’m not sure how that can be overcome. Desal plants are by no means a panacea, though, that’s for sure.

There would be mountains of salt destroying nearby ecosystems. Sequestering or transporting that mess would be costly, and cost = energy use.

We get it, you’re an asshole.
