How is showering a waste of water when it directly goes back into the “water infrastructure”

Answer 1

Used water must be filtered and processed again, and sometimes it isn’t recycled or can’t be. During that recycling process, again if there is one, water can be lost during it. That all takes time, effort, and money.

There is a limit to the *currently available* water as well. Water isn’t transported nor recycled instantly.

I’m not an expert but that’s how I understand it, until you get a better answer.
