Yeah, that worries me. Living things of all kinds benefit from fog. We would be better occupied learning how to value the water we have, rather than ripping it out of other natural sources.

I wondered about that; they claim they can also get moisture from clouds to use & thanks to us polluting the planet, that doesn't sound like the best idea either.
Still, if we get desperate enough who knows.

We seem to be heading that way..
I'm currently reading Golidlocks, Laura Lam, sci fi. About five women astronauts who steal a spaceship & head to a newly discovered planet which is in the 'goldilocks zone' at a time when women are being deliberately kept out of any important or interesting jobs.
