I don't really mind agricultural consumption because there has never not been enough water for human consumption.
And agricultural water consumption produces food.
You can't eat a lawn, or a swimming pool, or a long shower.
Well, I suppose you can try to eat anything once but the point stands.
There are very few places as ideally suited to agriculture as California so the water distribution priorities should be:
1. Humans: drinking and cooking
2. Farms
3. Humans: personal hygiene
4. Nothing this far down really matters so I don't care if they get a single drop. yes that includes data centers ps: kill your lawn
Also, I don't care if #2 gets 99.999999999% of the water and the agribusinesses make a quadrillion dollars so long as #1's (and #3's) needs are met.
