While tapping colder sea water seems like a 'good idea' be careful. Lots of things work on a small scale, like burning wood, coal and oil. All these on a large scale are causing trouble. The artic ice cap is melting, and the flow of cold fresh water may disturb the Gulf stream, modifying its circulation pattern which is worldwide. England is worried, for it could get *lots* colder.
We must look to renewables -- which means solar input one way or another -- or to LENR or BLP or hopefully 'safe' nuclear -- or to very efficient energy utilization, rather than tampering with the ecosystem. Mike Carrell
