This is actually pretty big news. It's a brand new, never before observed/understood effect that appears to break physics as we know it for liquid to vapor transition. This could conceivably lead to all kinds of new, more efficient technologies for sea water distillation and air conditioning systems.
The explanation for why plants are green isn't directly addressed in the video, but it is in the comment section. It's still speculative, but it makes perfect sense. Nobody has ever been able to explain why plants reflect green light. When you ask, all you get is handwaving arguments from the experts.
There is so much we still don't understand about the biosphere. It is pure arrogance to put forth climate change models and claim they are accurate. They haven't been accurate in the last 40 years, and they are very unlikely to be accurate today. How many other "unknown effects" are we not accounting for when engineering this politically driven "green" agenda?
If this theory is correct, what would REALLY be interesting (I mean besides rewriting dire CLIMATE CHANGE!! policies) would be creating a bench-scale model that would work for homes or neighborhoods. I have collected several methods of obtaining potable water from surface sources (coyote wells, distillation, filtration, etc.), but this method, if true, might be more efficient.
I suppose one could use an active, constant light source, but that in itself would require energy input... and if we're all living off the grid due to societal and infrastructure collapse, that won't be happening. OR, one might be able to use a passive source, the Sun, if properly filtered for the green spectrum.
That's what I would like to see come out of this... a portable, passive water distillation device that would work during daylight and require only new water being added to distill.
OK,
