A brewery is making beer with recycled wastewater, purified using a process developed by NASA::The company relies on the same recycling methods that NASA uses to allow astronauts to drink water in space.

Oh cool! I definitely think it’s something that ought be adopted at a larger scale.
I live in Sweden, one of the countries with the most freshwater per capita in the world, and even so, for the past ten years or so we’ve had frequent droughts. There’s not enough snowfall or rain to replenish our groundwater supply. Such is the world we made, and now we’d best adapt.
As per my other comment you probably already are. With the exception of costal communities nearly all wastewater is recycled.
In countries with poor wastewater standards this leads to massive river pollution. You don’t know about it because Sweden has strong wastewater regulations.
