"Wasting" water... always wondered why that was even a phrase. You can't "waste" water. It doesn't disappear, it stays in the water cycle. Same amount of water on the planet today as there was yesterday. We just need to get the water to where it is needed, from where there too much of it. That means an all-of-the-above strategy. Efficient use, pipelines, dams for flood control and storage. But we can't have that now can we? Might drown a snail.
