I've always joked around about Asians rinsing their rice: "The world would save so much fresh water if Asians only rinsed their water once." My mom would usually get mad at me since I usually rinse 1-2 times when she does around 4 rinses.

Then I asked a friend who worked at a fine dining sushi/sashimi place how much they wash their rice. Minimum 6 washes. I guess it's not much of a joke anymore.

I don't even count. I have a contraption I made where I put rice/beans/ect. in and then just run the water through until the water runs clean.

Well, any time I make rice the water goes in a basin and ends up back int he garden a few minutes later, so I don't feel guilty about that.
