One Man's Plan to Bring Drinking Water to Millions by Towing an Iceberg

The video discusses a plan to tow a massive iceberg from Antarctica to South Africa to address water shortages. Spearheaded by marine salvage expert Nicholas Sloan, the project faces logistical and environmental challenges. While desalination is considered, it is deemed less viable due to high costs and environmental impact. The plan awaits approval from the South African government, with potential execution in November or December when conditions are favorable.
