Oh you mean change the behavior of the poor, not the rich. Gotcha.
Progressive pricing of water for larger consumers helps alleviate impact on the poor.
You missed my point. I agree they reduce consumption, but only on the poor. There will never be any progressive pricing that will affect the wealthy in any substantial way unless we determine the price as a percent of income.
Making water 2x more expensive probably isn't going to cause you to drink less water, but it might make you consider a variety of water conservation measures, like low flow showers, dishwashers, or low water landscaping.
Golf courses, cattle ranchers and almond farmers on the other hand....
But please, so tell me how people don’t react to prices!
