But do you know what's their problem?

Well, those rivers tend to lead to the ocean! And that means all of that sweet sweet freshwater vanishes into the salty salty sea!

This accident of circumstances is, of course, unacceptable. So what if you can keep all that freshwater from leaking out there by damming the very sea itself?

It might sound weird at first, but this is a real thing - a coastal reservoir. A freshwater lake created out of a piece of the ocean. In this video, I want to talk about the upsides and downsides of coastal reservoirs.
