On March 1, 2009 I wrote about Solving the California Drought through the use of water desalination. Today’s Los Angeles Times reported that the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board has unanimously approved the project. Astonishingly there are environmentalists who oppose the project because they believe it will harm the coast. The Times report does not explain the reasoning behind the opposition.
It is interesting to note that there was little or no opposition to the over building of homes throughout California. The urbanization of Southern California was the real issue and there is still little opposition to the continuing construction of homes and businesses throught the state.

There is no way the environmentalists should be standing against any way to help this situation. It’s got to be addressed one way or another.
