Which statement best summarizes the claim the author
makes in the excerpt?
people actually love drinking recycled wastewater
wastewater is not easy to purify, but it is necessary
for survival
as california scrambles for ways to cope with its
crippling drought and the mandatory water restrictions
imposed last month by gov. jerry brown, an array of
ideas that were long dismissed as too controversial,
expensive or unpleasant are getting a second look. one is
to conserve more water; another is to turn nearby and
abundant sources of water, like the pacific ocean, into
drinking water through desalination.
yet another is to recycle the water californians have
already used. and therein lies a marketing challenge that
can be even greater than the technological one
-"water flowing from toilet to tap
may be hard to swallow."
john schwartz
california is facing a drought that has greatly
affected the water supply
convincing people to drink recycled water is a more
difficult task than producing it.
