If I did that with everything, not just water. It would be way more waste than 1 tonne.

What about frequently checking replies page out of FOMA?

What about the content I watch or read? The anime I watched last took lot to produce and there is no doubt, people wasted shit ton of paper along with other things are?

That is quite a lot of waste in terms of energy.

Those are different because that waste gets amortized across a large number of consumers.
