Better and New technology breakthrough needs to be developed now for continued research and development in converting ocean water to drinking water . in 5 to 10 years we can accomplish Low energy/ cost and MASSIVE desalination plants - it’s the only way . We will solve it just like we did we fossil fuels and pollution. /s

Fun fact, 75% of Israel's water is taken from the Mediterranean Sea and desalinated for drinking. Only issue is that the plants that do it run on natural gas and fossil fuel.

So the technology is there. It just needs to be improved upon by being given a different power source
