Thread: A stitch in time...

1 Has the governments stopped the largest of water usage the building industry and construction industry, have they stopped the building of pools which are filled with dam drinking water NO will they NO.

2 Have the governments brought in total fire bans yet NO

Ask yourself WHY??

Don't know about other states, but in Qld there has been a policy for several years now of not declaring total fire bans. It seems that when total fire bans are declared the idiots come out and play with matches. In periods of high fire danger you won't get a permit to light a fire, but generally no total fire bans are announced.

I have been buying water in 15ltr containers(drinking water) and setting up water storage (recycled from the washing machine)to water my veggie garden.....I also bought portable power generators to run my fridge and freezer with in a power out.....I also bought longlife milk and dairy products for the next six months ......I dont want to be an alarmist, but it would be prudent to sit back and reflect on your own circumstances, and take actions now ...when the news hits ......and usually its way to late ....the shelves will be stripped bare ......and they will probably stay that way for some time.......

Ok then, considering you're a chef.

What things would you like us to grow for you.?
Do you want a supplier of fresh rain water ?

If so pm me

I will newver understand why we don't recycle every drop of water that we use. It is a non-degradable resource that is endlessly recyclable. Every drop of water on this planet has already been through millions of animals and fish. Why can't we recycle it again rather than pumping it into the ocean. The government needs to educate the people on this and lead the way rather than seeking votes.
