Hmm i think so, given the wisdom of using underground aquifiers to grow populations in the middle east.

Heres an idea. Dig giant trenches along the coast, let the sea fill up groundwells, with the ground filtering out the bad stuff, then just pump it to people, or bring people to it. Cheaper and much more sustainable.
