California's Water Problem

California has a lot of sunshine and high temperatures..the only logical choice for the future is seawater desalination....whether that is done by reverse osmosis or distillation will depend on cost and efficiency, but it is clear that nature can supply only a limited amount through rivers and lakes, dams etc, and water conservation can only be stretched so far, so sooner or later a point is reached whereby you simply have to add more water to the equation. Maybe solar powered distillation is the way to go..there is plenty of desert land to set up solar panels to drive hydro pumps to transport sea water to a distillation facility in the desert, with arrays of moving  mirrors reflecting solar to a point whereby seawater is boiled, and freshwater of that quality could used for potable supply only to homes etc, thereby taking the strain off present dam infrastructure. The concentrated, salty brine solution is then gravity fed back into the ocean at depth so as to not interfere with the sea life in the upper photosynthetic  layer. Thinking long term, some of that brine could also be diverted and pumped directly into regions of the San Andreas fault, as a kind of lubricant that may help mitigate the god-awful BIG ONE that is surely coming to ruin most Californians day....
