Best Answer
The use of urban wastewater in agriculture is a centuries-old practice that is receiving renewed attention with the increasing scarcity of fresh water resources in many arid and semi-arid regions of the world. Driven by rapid urbanization and growing wastewater volumes, wastewater is widely used as a low-cost alternative to conventional irrigation water: it supports livelihoods and generates considerable value in urban and peri-urban agriculture despite the associated health and environmental risks. Though pervasive, this practice is largely unregulated in low-income countries, and the costs and benefits are poorly understood.Another way we waste water is by leaving the hose on, leaving the faucet running, not finishing opened water bottles, etc...

We never waste water, we use water.
But yes, through irrigation canals and keeping it in resevoirs, we do divert and drain water from those downstream. -
evaporation, e.g. from irrigating in the day
