Question

Does wasting water also waste energy? Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Wasting household water does not ultimately remove that water from the global water cycle, but it does remove it from the portion of the water cycle that is readily accessible and usable by humans. Also, "wasting" water wastes the energy and resources that were used to process and deliver the water.

Answer 2

Answer:

I feel like there should be more parts to this question but I think it depends on how you got your water. If you waste water after you got it from a local stream yourself, you wasted your body energy but no real electricity of any kind. If the water is processed and filtered and you end up wasting it, I guess it counts as energy being wasted too? Because the sole purpose was to bring you clean water but you didn't utilize it
