The material discusses the concept of ways that could be used to reduce the salinity of the Salton Sea. While the reading looks at the topic from one perspective, the listening challenges certain points outlines in the reading topic.
Firstly, the reading details specific points regarding this topic, namely, remove the salt from the lake by desalination processes. Next, dilute the lake’s water by adding water from the Pacific Ocean. Finally, dividing the lake into several sections.
Conversely, the listening challenges the points, one specific contradiction is removing salts from the water may have health risks, because the Salton lake’s water has chemical materials rather than salt; furthermore, these materials could be toxic. They will diffuse to the atmosphere, and people could breathe it and cause critical health problems. In addition to that, add water from the Pacific Ocean is a big constructing project, while the government does not have the recourse to this major construct, because the lake is a hundred kilometers long. One final point, divided the lake by using separate walls could not be a solution for a long time, because of the geological action. Provided that an earthquake happens, these walls will be collapsed, and the water from the large portion with a low amount of salt will mix with the small portion with a large amount of salt.
