And north American households will still waste 1000kg of food per year

Ya know…I’m more inclined to not care about wasting water where it still gets put back in the earth as water to be filtered for future generations. Basically I don’t believe you ever waste water. You can drain your Source from over consumption, but it’s never wasted.
What I’m not ok with is dumping toxic crap in water and contaminating it where it can’t or won’t be filtered.

What often happens is ground water being pumped up and then ending up in rivers leading out so sea.

That and water. The amount of clean drinking water that is wasted is staggeringly high, both personal use and in big industry.
