They are running out of ancient water, and will have to use electricity to desalinate. **Gigantic amounts of ancient trapped FRESH water is under all oceanic islands**. All. Its a magic trick of rainfall, and pushes away saltwater far and wide under all islands lacking lakes. But... 300,000 muslim scum on one capitalist leaning non-poor island guzzled thousands of years of past easy-to-drill water. WATER PRICES to soar soon? **Protecting (scarce) fresh water in the Maldives**: https://www.undp.org/content/undp/en/home/blog/2016/4/15/Protecting-scarce-fresh-water-in-the-Maldives.html That article was NOT written by a educated geologist and does not understand how fresh water accumulates over centuries. I tell you the above factoids, to let you know that no matter how tiny an ocean island, if you and others are stranded, digging deep enough gets you all the ancient fresh water out of ground you ever could drink.... but 300,000 muslims on one island??... they drank it dry and turned it into piss and shit! Muslim shit! The foulest smelling shit there is, I hear.
