“countries without river” idk why i’m so blown by that
@rai0ony
aside from the water issue, I just want to appreciate the fact that you didn't use cliche Arabic music (Oud) in the background
@Mesharii77
Growing up in a small town in the middle of the desert in Saudi Arabia, I remember more than 20 years ago that we would get occasional cut of running water coming from desalination. But credit goes to the consecutive governments of Saudi Arabia for expanding desalination projects that we never had a shortage of water supply in small towns or anywhere. Now desalination factories in the Red Sea use solar panels as sustainable source of fuel for powering the plants.
@thefrub
I've always wondered if planting saltwater mangrove trees along desert coasts will have an effect on the local climate. Trees release water vapor which becomes rain. Kind of a natural desalination plant

Ironically, it was drilling for water that led to discovery of the oil caches under the sands of the kingdom.

@abdulrahmana8623
its crazy that you actually have VERY accurate information!! i mean im Saudi so i do know these info but wow! great job! subbed too!
@kanehi
The brine from desalinization plants could be used to produce salt when dried in the sun and doesn't necessarily have to go back to the ocean with negative impacts
@Ooooiops
The strange fact is water is very cheap in Saudi Arabia & Gulf Arab countries! The government pays 80% of the water bill & 20% on the costumers! Lol
@joycecornista7884
I have been living in Saudi Arabia for more than 20 years and I did not experience any water shortage. Amazing country.
@MajidAlGhamdi
I really love the nature of comments here. They’re addressing the subject of the video and not branching to other unneeded topics. Thank you! 😊

I really enjoyed reading the comments. So many educated people here
@johnmehaffey9953
Saudi Arabia is about the only Arab country that I'd like to visit when I watch the horse racing which the Saudi,s love they all seem so polite and easily approachable, I know that desalination needs a lot of power to get it drinkable but surely with the solar power that is available it could be made more easily
@alexfang6784
Kudos to Saudi Arabia for tackling this issue for the good of its people. I hope the country will continue to invest in renewable resources to power their desalination plants and thereby also diversify its economy. I suspect in the future the world's best desalination engineers may come from Saudi Arabia.

Am I the only one who think this is could be a vox video?
@tanzeelmohammed9157
I lived in Khafji for 13 years and came India in 2008. Idk but when I heard Khafji have world's largest solar powered desalination plant,i had goosebumps 😭
