While this is true, engineers are rapidly improving efficiency. When powered by solar, wind, or waste heat, AWGs can operate with minimal environmental impact.
Unlike desalination, AWGs produce no brine waste and do not harm marine ecosystems. Unlike bottled water, they eliminate plastic pollution and transportation emissions. In many cases, they can be a cleaner alternative to traditional water solutions

This first research and its iterations supported by federal funds suggested as many as 70,000 Americans were dying prematurely from the tiny particles the plants emitted. Today, the most recent work led by Harvard links as many as 300,000 deaths in America every year to the burning of fossil fuels, not to mention the related carbon emissions that promote global warming
