Looking for fresh water? I would think desalinating sea water would be more cost effective.

Trouble is, what to do with the salt?

I understand Saudi Arbia gets a lot of their water from the ocean, as does Israel.

I don't know what Israel does with their salt but the Saudis put a lot of it back into the ocean and one study I read said it is affecting the Gulf of Oman.

What if most coastal oceans start using ocean water?
