How?
You're taking salt from a large volume and putting it in a small area all at once. It kills the fish
I guess if the plan was to sprinkle the salt over miles and miles of ocean, that could work. But that's ridiculous to implement.
Well yeah I imagine airplanes would be used
Take a bunch of salty water
Remove most of the water for other purposes
You now have to dispose of the same amount of salt, but less water. It's hypersalinated, and toxic as fuck.
Yes but rain fall would mitigate this would it not?
Unfortunately not. It's actually a real problem
Fuck. Maybe we could just eat the salt...
