Explore how seawater desalination methods transform saltwater into potable freshwater, and what drawbacks this technology has.
--
Humans have been transforming seawater into potable freshwater for millennia. Today, billions of people can’t access clean drinking water, and 87 different countries are projected to be “water-scarce” by 2050. So, how can we use seawater desalination to combat water scarcity? And can we do it without further harming the environment? Manish Kumar digs into how scientists are creating freshwater.
Lesson by Manish Kumar, directed by Vitalii Nebelskyi, and action creative agency.
