750 million gallons is nothing to scuff at. Of course that's what only 2 golf courses do annually (allegedly), but doesn't that just add to the fact...not necessarily a logically sound rebuttal. Especially when lotic systems provide more services than simple entertainment and irresponsible thirst convenience.

Golf courses generate a lot of economy. They are worth the water.

It's amazing how dishonest journalists are.

I think it's more ignorance than dishonesty.

Likely a contributing factor

Stupid Golden State libnuts are always preaching how government should be the solution to everything.  The gov is trying to get people to save water - libs cussing city hall.  Next stealing farmers water rights.

A new TV show - Life of the Rich and Famous Water Pigs.  It sickening to see the pictures of rich starlets, the Kardasian things, rich tycoons, and actories homes fronts manure green and the lots next door desert dry and burned.   Water systems are fining them $500 for violations - big whoop deterrent.  Meanwhile the peon riffraff are stealing water.   I would turn off the rich's sewer service until they reduced usage and hire kids to parade around their homes in hog suits.

That sounds amazing.  Hopefully it's scaleable.  Probably going to get a ton of investment.

We need to seriously considering true recycling of water from wastewater.  In many instances (especially in California), the stuff we're putting into the river/ocean is cleaner than the stuff we drink.

Seems like something that would easily be able to be done at large scale, but who knows. Pretty amazing tho

There are some cities already doing that. Not very many, though.

Supposedly there is a shower that was designed for the ISS that is being tweaked for residential use that recycles something like 90% of the water it uses during the shower.  Faucet, drain, filter, back to faucet.  All during the same shower.  They had a price point on it last year, when I hear of it, of something  like $500.

Things like that would be pretty huge.

A big sewage pipeline from Canada. The Crapstone pipeline.  Water and fertilizer for organic crops.  Libs idea probably is better though.
