Thankfully water falls from the sky and our residential use of it barely amounts to a single digit percent compared to industrial and agricultural consumption of water. Unfortunately some regions charge residents way too much for it and have the gall to try to convince the populace that reducing personal use of water will have any meaningful impact. All so they can get back 0.1% of the total water used so they can spend a few more minutes watering lettuce they're growing in the desert.
