1. no cuz its freakin recycled...how could u possibly wast water...wait u can...i do it all the time...i have a bottle of water tthats ;like half full then i throw it in the trash can...and it goes to the junk yard place...then the water is never used to its a waste
2. No,because the water ends up somewhere like a river or lake and it goes in it goes through a machine which cleans the water.
3. Technically speaking, NO because water is recycled continuously. Generally speaking, YES. For instance, because in many NON WHITE countries, where resources are scarce, it would be considered a waste to throw away water. In some African countries, people carry buckets and walk great distances to receive their water.
4. Water is a fixed resource. The amount on earth has changed very little over millions of years. What's more limited is potable water, and that is easily wasted. Many regions of the world use more than is readily available. Some, such as the central US, are consuming fossil water supplies without considering the long term.
