Some might say that life or humans is a waste. * I suspect we all have
different criteria about what is waste and what is important.


Good point. The perspective I have here is that potable water is a
much more valuable resource to humans than we give it credit for.
JMHO, of course, but better to let a tree burn, and release CO2, than
to waste water putting out the fire.
