Isn't it funny how...

i know... but i can't do NOTHING just because business is water expensive. that will change eventually, i hope... The govt is currently looking at it. But it's annoying how that that individuals are made to sacrifice, because they're a soft target, while the authorities close a blind eye to the big boys. Also make me angry when CWW takes hours to repair a broken main spewing litres of water a second. it's not always convenient to do the washing machine/grey water thing, esp at night, but i have it draining into a big rubbish bin, from which i syphon it when it suits me... and i'm sick of tripping over buckets in the shower but when those buckets provide all the water i need for several shrubs, it sort of seems worthwhile... I fitted a diverter just this weekend and 20 metre 50mm drainage pipe. Every bit helps. Still I expect to have a dead lawn before too long, unless we get rain soon, and then some. i dunno, perhaps it just makes me feel better, and that can't be a bad thing ) "lynx" wrote in message ... imorf wrote: ros wrote: My lawn is pretty green too - i use ALL my grey water from washing machine (front loader), shower (yes, savers) and rinse water from the kitchen sink on the grass and plants etc. Adds up to quite a lot, and everything's thriving, tho i did change my washing powder to phosphate free 'green care' liquid - aus made, and works great. /pat on the back. Meanwhile industry uses how many thousands/millions of litres daily? -- rgds, Pete ===== http://pw352.blogspot.com/ 'Love is temporary insanity cureable by marriage' |
