Original Note:
Saltwater is corrosive and damaging to fire fighting equipment, while also being worse at lowering the temperature of fire (thus extinguishing not it efficiently). Furthermore, large amounts of salt would be left on the earth, causing catastrophic effects on the ecosystem. https://www.technology.org/how-and-why/can-salt-water-put-out-fire/
