Water availability is also very different from country to country, region to region, and even town to town. How your water usage affects the environment depends on so many things.

I collect rain water but use it on the veggie garden. So either it is safer because I ma not drinking it directly OR it is worse because the planet are bio-accumulating it. I don't know.

Well, you can get it tested for things that bioaccumulate.

Air pollution does change abruptly, but on most places it tends to not do that frequently.
