If so think about how much water you waste or pollute? All that water down the drain and that water contaminated. Most people think that “ oh I am only one person out of millions, if I stop it won't matter, I can’t make a difference, I can’t stop others from doing the same.” if everyone thinks likes this then yes, you will never
