THERE IS SALT IN THE OCEAN, I REPEAT, THERE IS SALT IN THE OCEAN!


            I am so glad this finally happened. People are starting to actually starting to care about the sustainability of the Earth, and with that, come the survival of the human race. They created a new piece of technology, which can help the poorer part of the planet, stay afloat, unlike other unnecessary wastes of technology that really is not needed for survival. I can almost guarantee that more people have iPhones than do people have access to clean drinking water. Before any of you readers start to contradict me on that, it is a desalination device, it was only a projected use for it, and if it could take out the dissolved salt particles from the water, I’m pretty sure it could do some basic dirt particles. Anyway, not only do these scientists who created care about the human race, but it was an improvement on an earlier invention. These water desalination devices are friendly to the environment, and so people can use them without worrying about any adverse harmful effects on the environment.

            Even though this new device is friendly to the environment, it still could be improved if it were made to be biodegradable, but I suppose a person can’t have a cake and eat it too, unless he or she is an extremely rich person, which then he could eat a cake, and take someone else’s too. Although being biodegradable would be nice for this device, it may not be necessary at all, depending on the people who have access to the device in question. If it were a closed group of scientists, if they took the time to create a device that is friendly to the environment, it is sure they will not just toss a piece of plastic randomly into the ocean or litter. If given to the general human population of first world countries, it would be another farewell to seagulls and turtles.

            If this device works well, it could start saving many villages in Africa, and other areas without clean drinking water, but it raises the question of the degree of how well it works in different conditions, or even how much it is able to filter out. Even though this is a great solution to a worldwide problem of polluted water because of needless waste of materials, especially in America, one of the best solutions is to stop the problem from happening in the first place. So, even though I do not usually get all pro-environment often, I do beg you readers to consider about the poorer people sometimes.
