Yes, it's like cloud seeding (inducing rain), which works to a small degree in some places. Both seem to rob the air of some of its moisture. What is the effect on nature? I don't know the answer. It may be a relatively small amount of water, considering what it up there.

I saw a show once where they built a device that sucked water out of the air... but then it failed to distinguish between water in the air and water in people, and it just started sucking people dry.
Probably not a real risk here either ;)
Sounds like my vacuum cleaner.
Distinct from my cousin Vac, who is a cleaner... that guy just sucks the fun out of everything.
I guess that it depends on the amount of machines you are running in a certain place, a dozen and so would probably not cause damage, but if you start setting them up like solar panels by the hundred is going to have consequences too, but it looks like a great method anyways for places with no water and far away from the ocean.
If you have no water but are close enough to the ocean i prefer water desalination technologies.
