A village has no running water but is near the ocean . Food is limited and farming is close to non existent because they lack the access to fresh water. One group thinks the village should build a desalination plant , which can remove the salt from the nearby ocean water. What is the biggest problem with this plan? O A. A desalination plant would decrease the carrying capacity. O B. With fresh water, the village would consume too much. O C. The village probably cannot afford a desalination plant, O D. It is more important for the village to get running water.

C. The village probably cannot afford a desalination plant.

Explanation:

Desalination may be defined as treating water to make it consumable for human use and drinking purposes.

A desalinated plant separates the saline or salt water in two streams. One is fresh water stream for drinking and farming and the other contains dissolved salts.  

The setting up of a desalinated plant is very demanding and costly and the running cost is also huge. It takes a lot of energy and resources to set up and run a desalinated plant.  

Thus in the context, the village would not be  able to afford a desalination plant.
