Water in California is shared across three main sectors.
Statewide, average water use is roughly 50% environmental, 40% agricultural, and 10% urban(this report. others are only different by a few percent)

Cheapskates stock up on filtered water they get from work for free. They also make a point of using work restrooms to save on water and TP use. Truly sad.

Almost as bad as the Tesla owners who gloat about their energy savings from charging for free at work charging stations.

The aggies tried to save water via drip irrigation. However that led to salt in the water settling in their fields and reducing yields.

They would have to periodically flood their fields to wash away the salt negating the water savings.
