This may now be so. Melbourne is wetter than London, though only slightly (based on figures from year 2002), so with the recent drought in Melbourne this may have reversed.

Re: Water Issues
ok so, australia is basically now on water restrictions the whole time.
just what is the problem with having desalinated water. Has there been a general no from the population or is it something the government don't want to fund to put it in place. let's face it, they are going to have to do something soon. |

Re: Water Issues
Sensible one on the radio news the other day someone has made a toilet that fills with the water you use to wash your hands after you've used the toilet... only problem is you obviously have to leave anything sitting there until you've washed them then flush.

Re: Water Issues
IMO they should have done something months ago, target the high users...the councils know who they are..................some peeps dont give a shite then everybody has to pay.....they leave these restrictions tooo late. We are in CQLD and only on level 1....but I use the water very sparingly....we have timers in the showers and never leave a tap running....what pisses me off is people leaving there sprinklers running all night FFS its only grass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What do you mean by CQLD? They need to get their act together asap but should have been done years ago think they've always relied on a cyclone coming to save them.
