<br/><br/> "America is running out of drinking water. In parts of the arid West, this is literally true. In coastal areas, such as Pinellas County, Florida, the problem more closely resembles Coleridge's famous verse, 'Water, water, every where/Nor any drop to drink.' To slake its thirst, the local water authority, Tampa Bay Water, has built the largest desalination facility this side of Saudi Arabia." (ONEARTH) This article explains desalination of seawater and discusses its worldwide use.
