In some how I agree with you, However in the middle east especially in the Gulf countries most of our drinking water is from sea while for other water use mainly agriculture ( aprox. 90%) is from groundwater. This is because the cost of desalination is very high, I wish you all the best in your research and hope you can find the way of cheaper solution of desalinating the sea water.

This method has already been found. It is much more efficient - 85% yield of drinking water, energy efficient, less energoeatraten, less the cost of desalination.

Such a methodhas already been found.And thisis reverse osmosis.A technology,in which85%of seawateragainbecomepotable, but only15%-brine.Cost ofdesalinationis very lowatthis technology.andapproximately10cents.for 1cubic meter.

I also agree to you. So far the best efforts are from dry areas like gulf countries. In fact after looking at Gulf countries and their efforts I started thinking and I got motivated that I should do more. Now or so far what humanity did to quench the thirst is too small because we are fundamentally wrong in our approach. I don't think'/feel that i am taking about a big thing . it is very clear to me that our efforts need to apply a factor for correction at Least now.
