Remembered Malala, the girl who fought for basic human rights for little girls so they could go to school? She still exists, the media just stopped talking about her once they found out she had “extreme” beliefs ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I’m very curious where your idea that nuclear and desalination are connected came from?
It does require more land if at first you are moving all of the saltwater to land. That too is energy intensive. It makes more sense to desalinate in the ocean then only transport pure water back.
Individuals? I’m not sure I understand the context. There are probably kits, but I’d need to understand more about your circumstances.
Well I had the idea myself and I mostly kept it to myself. Then during the California recall election a twenty something year old guy was running and said he’d do that if he were elected. So I thought maybe it’s not a bad idea.
Well how much water do you think you can get given a meter^2 of sun vaporization over the course of an hour.
Then we can compare to nuclear pushing water through some type of high tech filter mesh or something.
Edit: he had a submissive and breedible shirt
assume a nuclear plant produces a gigawatt. assume the sun emits 1kw per meter^2 assume the sun is only active half the time
you would need to build 2000 plots of 1kilometer^2 sun desalination to put equivalent energies to the water
I don’t know relative efficiencies but I assume not too far apart
Waif I think I’m doing the math wrong. Maybe you only need a 2 kilometer^2 plot…
I guess nuclear electricity won’t be as cheap as the sun either.
