For real or a joke?

Air is abundant; therefore, it’s free. Nobody charges others for breathing air. With desalination technology, we can now turn (rising) salty water into fresh water, and we do! Until recently, only 1 percent of the earth’s water could be used for drinking and irrigation. Now, almost 100 percent is available. Water can now become abundant, and should therefore become free. No more wars over fresh water (like Israel-Palestine), or death and disease due to lack of clean water.
With hydroponic technology, we can now grow anything with just water and electricity, and we do! We now grow food in deserts and the poles. If food no longer requires land or sun, we can grow anything anywhere and on a vertical scale. Imagine a tall building with a different vegetable or fruit in every floor. We can get rid of all world famines and malnutrition. In fact, every vegetable and fruit would become equally available everywhere. We can make food abundant anywhere, and therefore free everywhere. Every year, millions of people die from lack of clean water or inadequate nutrition. Thanks to hydroponic agriculture, millions of lives (and much more suffering) can be saved
every year.
But if hydroponic agriculture requires water and electricity, and only water is free, how do you acquire and pay electricity? Well, the only clean, safe, environmental, sustainable and recyclable energy is electricity that comes from geothermal, solar, wind, and wave energy.
