Does anyway know about the process of desalinating ocean water for consumption? It seems like a wonderful eco-solution to supply problems and a great recycling of resources. I'm curious to know how effective it is.

Last year there was an application for a desalination plant on the Thames to serve a portion of London. The mayor was campaigning against it as it would produce less purified water than the amount wasted through leakages in mains pipes and the amount people "waste" at home, never mind the pollution it would have produced.

Hmm...I wonder if America would ever get the same idea. I'm sure we waste a lot of water! I try not to use it unless I absolutely need to.
