TPO 54 The Salton Sea in California is actually a salty inland lake The level of salt in the lake s water what scientists call its salinity has been increasing steadily for years because the lake s water is evaporating faster than it is being repla

The passage provides us with three methods to reverse the trend which is threatening the lake's health while the professor has enough reasons to feel that non-of them are realistic or practical.
The first way to reach that end is that salt should be extracted from the lake's water directly by special desalination facilities. The lecturer believes that it is possible to remove the salt in that way, but it may have serious problems for people's health. That is because of solid materials which will remain after the main process, also they contain some chemical toxic substances. When these substances are released into air, it can have bad impacts on humans' bodies.
Second method for solving that problem is to dilute the salt level in the lake with water from the ocean while the professor completely disagrees and thinks that it needs a lot of pipelines and channels. Government cannot provide resources for paying money which is needed for implementing of that project, which is about one hundred kilometer long. As a result, it is not so practical that the government can do it.
Constructing walls to divide the lake into many part for controlling that problem is considered as the last method. Whereas the lecturer supposes that it is unlikely to work for a long time since it is possible that some earthquakes happen in that region which can destroy the walls. Therefore, this solution may be practical for a short while, but major earthquake can ruin the walls and return the salt into the main section of the lake. Hence, this method can be a great idea only for short time.
In brief, although the passage claims that those solutions are realistic, the professor believes that non-of them is practical.
