We all know about the hosepipe bans and huge amounts of rainfall in the last few weeks, and are now being told the reason its not making a huge difference is the rainfall is too heavy and running off the land before soaking through.
That being the case how do hot countries like Australia manage or parts of America, Las Vegas for example? Places that go months and months without any rain. I know very little about this subject and it amazes me that a small country like the UK, that is completely surrounded by sea and gets more than its fair share of rain should be in this position.
Can they not filter sea water or is that not possible? If not what is the answer, surely there must be one.
