The reading and the lecture are both about the solutions to decrease the water salinity in the Salton sea.
The author of the reading feels that there are three possible solutions to decrease water salinity.
The lecturer challenges the claims made by the author.
He thinks that these solutions are unrealistic.
To begin with, the author suggests that one of the possible solutions to remove the salts from the water is desalination.
The article mentions that by pumping water into facilities and heated. This evaporates the water into steam and leaving salt behind in addition to that, the steam will be cooled down into water-free salt.
This specific argument is challenged by the lecturer.
She claims that the procedure puts human health at risk because desalinization leaves salts and other chemicals. She illustrates her opinion by saying that one of these chemicals is selenium, which is seriously toxic if it blows out by the wind and Additionally, he says the human breath will be at risk.
Secondly, the writer suggests diluting decreases the salt level by adding more water from the ocean. He explains that the ocean water is less salt than Salton lake.
In the article, it is said that this modulation can be done by construction canals or pipelines.
The lecturer, however, refutes this by mentioning _that construction pipelines or canals depend on the local government resources. She claims that the distance between the ocean and the Salton sea is at least a hundred Kilometers. consequently, the cost will be so expensive and hence if the government has not enough resources this solution will not work.
Finally, the author suggests that the problem can be solved by constructing walls to several sections, In the small sections besides the freshwater in the small section would be directed to the large section to the lake.
In contrast, the lecturer's contradicts this suggestion. She said that is this area is geologically unstable. She elaborates on her opinion. She said that this solution may work in a short time but it would not work in the long run. The area is unstable geologically if an earthquake happens, it will lead to the destruction of the walls _and mixing the water low salinity with the high salinity water
