That half gallon of water the human consumes every day doesn’t end up in the human either. What’s your point?

- tzs 5y agoYou specifically mentioned almond exports in the context of water supply management. My point is that exports are irrelevant in that context because only a tiny bit of the water used to grow it ends up in the almond. To determine the impact of almond growing on the water supply you have to follow the water, not the almond, and see where it goes. 99.97% of that water ends up somewhere other than the almond. The net water impact of growing almonds depends greatly on how much of that 99.97% ends up someplace useful.
