I want to nitpick the definition of “waste” for a moment. Yes, you are using a lot of water, and energy if the water is heated, BUT if you’re getting something remotely positive out of it (and you’re paying for it), then I would not consider it wasteful. If you genuinely want to label it as something, then let’s compromise and call it therapeutic. Deal?
Unless you're in California or any other area with a low water table. Then it's a huge issue.
Compare this person’s shower to the many farms growing almonds in the same state.
Abolish almonds
This is Lemmy, if you use water to water a plant, it never goes anywhere, it disappears entirely and there is no wider system that the water might become a part of, and if you eat an almond you've literally used all the water a city would use in a year.
