Just had a random thought. If it rains on land, and fresh water is going into the sea, and that evaporated and gets turned into some frsh water by "desalinisers" or whatever they are called, then how come the sea isnt getting less salty? Whale sperm?
Because when water evaporates from the ocean, it leaves the salt behind increasing the salinity.Quote:

desalination! thats the word. plus surely some of it goes over time?
why dont they use some of the salt for our food, you know like in the shaker kinda salt? I know we can get sea salt so this mist be bringing the count of salt down at least some
You guys are silly. Terp explained it right.
We do use the salt. Sea salt is popular as hell-- where have you been?Quote:

How do you think cruise ships and the bigger ships in the navy get their water?Quote:
