I agree. Apparently the UK average daily water usage is ~140l, so "fix leaks" dwarfs all the others.
If you're irrigating your garden, that's also going to be a big one, but quite often you get a hosepipe ban in the dry season anyway.
Someone with a water meter should try these measures and see if they notice a difference; I bet they don't. The data center one is of course unmeasureable by the individual.
