The Great Green Debate
[ 20/10/2010; 8:00 pm to 9:30 pm. 8:00 pm to 9:30 pm. ] We live on the driest inhabited continent on Earth yet Australia is sparsely populated. Australians are amongst the highest per capita water users in the world although there are many improvements and efficiencies to be made to reduce water consumption. Threats of unpredictable rainfall patterns under regional climate change and unhindered population growth worry Australians, however they also present opportunities.
Changing the way water is used in the Australian context, water-saving technologies, policy mechanisms, behavioural change, pollution prevention throughout waterways and land catchment management are a few of the issues that shall be addressed in this topical debate during National Water Week.
