I'm not an expert but it sounds like fresh water reserves across the planet are shrinking. It is a finite resource [0].

Can't you invest in technologies like desalination? For instance, over 3/4 of Israel’s drinking water comes from desalination plants, mostly from the Mediterranean Sea.
Deleting emails to save water usage is not the answer
Huge amounts of energy are required and it creates a lot of pollution as I understand.
The world's just going to get thirsty.
In the UK a lot of the stuff falls as rain. You just need reservoirs for when there's a bit of gap during the British summer which runs from July to August roughly.
I believe the problem is the pipes are centuries old and leak lots but replacing pipes is a nuisance. Lots of hills here so reservoirs aren't too hard to find.
