Here in utah we have water shortages and major droughts.
Politicians like the governor plead with us to "watch our water" while not doing anything about industrial use of water.
Now for statistics... All private use of water in the state amounts to under 3% total. Meaning: If everybody in the state took one shower per year it'd do diddly for the water shortages/droughts.
Because industry is still using the bulk by a shit-ton.
It's all posturing to make us "feel good" that we're "helping" but it doesn't do anything. My yearly household amount of water is something like 0.016% of state use..or maybe it's 0.0016... I read the statistic somewhere else, but it's not even worth doing anything because it won't move the needle one iota.
I personally have an abhorrence towards all politicians, at least the ones who take money from special interests and corporations (so 95% of politicians).
