Seawater cannot be used for cooling, salt buildup will kill the system. Water involved in human activity is 100% freshwater, which is the the most scarce resource as in the article (human accessible is 1% of whole water). Desallination is energy intense process too.
seawater is also corrosive and it will kill wildlife around it, that is not the ocean.
pretty sure technetium is more scarce
