Here’s how to bring fresh water to all of those arid places you keep hearing about on the news. This solution is simple and cheap enough that it could be built from parts from any hardware store and affordable in any country with a drought problem. Basically, you use the sun’s energy to both pump water from the sea and convert it into freshwater. It seems like most of the world’s water has salt in it, so we should use some of that.
Say you have a large otherwise useless plot of land, like the Sahara. By using the Thermosiphon principle you could pipe water from the ocean to the places that need it.
