China not only stockpiled oil but a much larger proportion of their energy is from renewables. The US could learn a thing or two

Not very likely to happen over water specifically when heat can be used to desalinate and decontaminate ocean water

On a nation's scale, nuclear energy. On a personal scale, I'd probably start a camp fire and do it over that.

Plus it gets even simpler with freshwater sources, all you do for those is filter through a cheesecloth and get your water to a rolling boil.

this is like that clip where joe rogan is talking to neil degrasse tyson and can’t comprehend that desalination requires prohibitive amounts of energy, to the point it is often more cost effective to ship it from across the globe.

Going to war without any water supplies is typically a lot harder than desalination no matter which way you cut it

oh yeah, there’s definitely an argument that as water becomes more scarce the efficiency calculus for desalination will change, I just love that clip so much
