To make seawater fit for human consumption its salt content of approximately 3.5% must be cut to 0.5% or less.
The release of seawater from the rock will raise sea levels over time, but not by much, says Schrag.
That means it's still almost always cheaper to use local freshwater than to desalinate seawater. This price gap, however, is closing.
