de salinization is too inefficient at large scales, ridiculously expensive. its unfortunately not a good solution to get water to people at the moment, not until we have more efficient means to both generate power, and consume less of it in the process.
also, the ocean doesnt need to get deeper for de salinization lol, the ocean is very deep already...
Er... was somewhat tounge-in-cheek.
If it came down to major catastrophic problems "from ice melt" then we would have that as an incentive to improve tech. There are many solutions to both macro and micro problems we may face.
