Original Note:
This is false, per the graphic's own source [1]. The dairy figure only measures drinking water, ignores the water needed to grow cattle feed [1, Table 2], and ignores water that farming contaminates [2]. Thousands of liters of water are used per liter of milk [2]. 1: https://ahdb.org.uk/the-water-footprint-of-british-milk-production 2: https://phys.org/news/2022-05-liter.html
