Question:

Could too many desalinization plants make the oceans too salty?

I was watching beyond tommorow and they were showing this valve that makes it more efficient to desalinate ocean water and was I just wondering if a long time from now if this will have an impact. The first time someone used hairspray it didn't cause a hole in the ozone either.

  1. Not likely, you'd have to remove huge amounts of water to even begin to affect it plus there is always fresh water flowing back into the oceans from ice melt, water treatment plants, rain, rivers etc.....


  2. the oceans are getting too acid because they are absorbing so much CO2, so it might help!

    but the desalinated water finds its way back to the sea eventually anyway, so it would only have a local effect.

  3. I DONT THINK SO CUZ I DONT BELEIVE THEY REINTRODUCE THAT SALT BACK  INTO THE OCEAN
