That’s why my front lawn is dead dead dead but I have a small patch of green in the back. I get the psychology angle, but when we grow cheap commodity crops with irrigation water only to ship them to China where they are fed to cattle is outrageous. We tend (maybe nobly) to focus on the insignificant steps we can take (navy showers?!) personally while ignoring the politically difficult but much more impactful big steps.

We should certainly be concerned with the ways we mine the earth for profit even as we are running out of drinking water. We can build a system that better cares for each person without exploiting the earth for endless profit.
