Free energy would solve any water problems.

Oh really now? I had no idea we could pull water out of our ass for any number of people at any time with free energy!

Feasible, but out of thin air is easier and less disturbing. Places in Arizona seem to have around 40 or 50% average air humidity.

And air conditioners are good at getting water out of air.

Frankly, I had no idea the humidity was that high in Arizona! Color me impressed.

The problem with pulling water from the anus is purification before consumption.

You pump the water from the sea. With free energy. I’m not the first to point this out. There are pages on it. Please google it.
