I also remember reading somewhere that we lose about 30% of our water assets through evaporation and poor water management!!!

Medindie lakes suffers from massive evaporation. Howard signed contracts for $400M for earthworks to reduce this evaporation by 80%. Rudd cancelled them and subsequently did nothing about it. So the water continues to evaporate when it could be going down the murray.

Just like Labor did in Sydney - costs a small fortune now for Sydney residents to turn on their taps.

mind you...

they refused to build a cheap dam down in gipsland in an area where it's been prone to flooding...

the Global scare mongers convinced Labor that it would never rain again and that a dam would be a waste of money..

since them the township has flooded twice and the river flows as good as its always done...

the dam could have saved millions in flood repairs and given us billions of litres of fresh water to use...

but instead.. Labor/Greens would rather we drink our own sewerage.. Undecided
