they can use salt water to fight the fires - no need to desalinate.
you just can't use salt water for anything else.
they could build a separate water system with huge tanks of salt water in the mountains ( or really man-made salt-water lakes in the mountains ) that can be used by firefighters in case of massive fires like this.
but ultimately the commies who run California just don't care about the peasants who vote them in. they care about frogs and owls.
many areas already have separate purple water lines for "reclaimed" or "recycled" water ( treated sewage ) that is only used for irrigating lawns, which in many places accounts for 50% of total water use.
why not also have a salt water lines that are only used for fighting forest fires.
yes i know salt is bad for everything including plants but if my options are to have a city burn down or to spray the plants with salt water i am going to spray them with salt water.
but the priorities of the elites are different. they would rather have you burn down and the ashes of your home fertilize the habitat for frogs and owls.
