| Abstract: | Malta is an island surrounded by sea. Malta is also almost a desert. It has less than 1,000m3 of water per inhabitant, the generally accepted limit to sustain agriculture and life. So why do we insist on using an immensely expensive process (reverse osmosis) to turn all the water we consume (an average of over 100 liters per day) into high-quality, potable drinking water when we only actually drink about two liters of it, at most? |
