3 methods to solve the increase of salinity of the Salton Sea in California

The passage provides 3 solutions to solve the increase of salinity of the Salton Sea in California. However, according to the lecture, the 3 solutions are not realistic.

The first solution might work but may cause major problems. Despite that the method of pumping water from the lake into facilities to get heated and evaporate and eventually turned back into water without salt may actually work, but the deadly chemicals left behind with the salts will be toxic for humans and eventually cause serious health problems near the lake.

The second solution will not work as well. Though bringing ocean water into the lake to decrease the lake's salinity sounds plausible but it will not eventually be used due to lack of resource. The construction includes building pipelines or canals, which the government may not have enough resouces to construct, resulting in this solution to be abandoned.

The third solution is not working for the long-term. The idea of dividing the lake into sections to control salinity is tempting, but geological activities such as earthquake will completely destroy the walls that divide the lake. So when this plan comes into reality, it is only going to last for the long-term but instead for a relatively short time and get completely destroyed when destructive geological activities occur.

We are expecting: No. of Words: 350 while No. of Different Words: 200
Better to have 5 paragraphs with 3 arguments. And try always support/against one side but compare two sides, like this:

para 1: introduction
para 2: reason 1. address both of the views presented for reason 1
para 3: reason 2. address both of the views presented for reason 2
para 4: reason 3. address both of the views presented for reason 3
para 5: conclusion.

So how to find out those reasons. There is a formula:

reasons == advantages or

reasons == disadvantages

for example, we can always apply 'save time', 'save/make money', 'find a job', 'make friends', 'get more information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.

or we can apply 'waste time', 'waste money', 'no job', 'make bad friends', 'get bad information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.

More content wanted.
