Link to register: June Water for People & the Environment Committee: Seawater Desalination In TX
This is the Water for People & Environment Committee's meeting for all Texans interested in water issues, advocacy, organizing and networking.
Speaker: Dr. Jim Tolan, former Marine Biologist at Texas Parks & Wildlife Department.
Join us for a discussion on the impacts of seawater desalination on coastal ecosystems in Texas. While conversations around desalination often focus on brine discharge and salinity, this presentation will explore another side of the issue that receives far less attention: seawater intake and its potential effects on plankton and the broader marine ecosystem.
