Default Water shortage crisis

Very interesting link to a short doco about Melbourne's water shortage crisis. There is a simple solution to the crisis and it seems like our government doesn't want to know about it. Anyone who lives in Victoria or is interested in the topic should watch this and pass it on.

Apologies if this has been posted before.

Yeah, caught that the other night - fair bit of tongue in cheek. It's a well thought out solution though.

Australia DOES NOT have a 'water shortage crises'... it has a 'Water Mismanagement Crisis'...

We are a country led by buffoons who couldn't run a pub chook raffle.

Very true, Awoonga Dam here is at capacity atm and it's reported gladstone and surrounding areas will have enough water to last 10 years without a single drop of rain.
