Innovation #5: Air Conditioning

Allow people to move and live in places that have more extreme weather.

Caused a major population shift to the South and West starting in the 1960’s.

Innovation #6: Desalinization The process by which salt is

separated to make fresh water

Allows people to adapt to new environments where only salt water may be present (example: Israel)

El Paso, Texas has one of the world’s largest desalinization plants
