The story of Southern California is, famously, one about water. And this week, a new chapter in that story began with the opening of a massive plant in San Diego County that will pull water from the ocean, remove the salt, and pipe it into homes. The Carlsbad Desalination Plant — the largest in the western hemisphere — will make 50 million gallons of water a day, or more than 18 billion gallons per year. Critics of the plant have slammed it for having extraordinarily high energy requirements. Environmentalists have said desalination kills marine life. Others say that it simply doesn’t make economic sense. http://bzfd.it/1T57R9z http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com
