While desalination sounds like a great way to solve the world’s water issues‚ there are many problems related to the sustainability of this process. Obviously‚ as discussed earlier‚ desalination has many negative impacts on the marine environment‚ but there are as well other reasons that it is not sustainable. For instance‚ desalination requires a very high-energy demand‚ which contributes to the reliance on fossil fuels and therefore the emission of pollutants such as greenhouse gasses. On average

With more research and work done‚ I believe that Bomani can find an inexpensive yet renewable way for energy.
