The articles mention agriculture (farmers in opposition of data center for water usage), it seems fair to consider local food production as an important asset for your children.

Yes, but thats is not what the article advocates for (allocation of water between farming/residential/industry).

It wants to keep industrial water use away without even having a discussion about water allocation/price. This is because farmers (all around the world tbh) are getting an insanely good deal right now (on water), and any public discussion of water price is only ever gonna make things worse for them.

    That’s a fair point. Even the most essential ends should think of optimizing their means.
