The Salton Sea in California is actually a salty inland lake. The level of salt in the lake’s water—what scientists call its salinity
Based on the given materials, the article as well as the lecture discusses salt level increases in Salton Sea, which encounters high evaporation rate without enough replacement from other water sources. The author states that there are several viable mechanisms regarding resisting against the noticeable increases which are dangerous to living organisms there. That being said, the lecturer provides several ideas to repudiate this claim.
Initially, the writer says that this problem can be solved by an extraction process in which salt is separated from water and the pure water will be return to the sea. However, the speaker explains that the remained salt will be counted as threaten to human beings' life, owing to the fact that it contains harmful chemical substances like Selenium; if this dangerous component releases to the air, people would not be able to breath correctly.
Second, the author proclaims that mixing the Pacific Ocean water with the water in Salton Sea can easily decrease the salt level by piping and canal systems, because of being lower salty. Yet again, the lecturer underscores that never do local government have enough budget for constructing the mentioned transporting system; distance between these two locations, approximately a hundred kilometeres, is long enough to require much allocated money.
The final point of contention between the reading and the listening passage is dividing the Sea by several constructed walls. The writer thinks that by this method the whole sea will be divided into three parts, and the main and largest parts will be controlled and prohibited from any salt level increase. On the other hand, the speaker explains that this strategy will be useful in short-term horizons; many natural disasters like eqrthquakes can easily break the walls and the separated water will be mixed again with the other regions. Thus, separating walls cannot be practical in the long run.
