Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.
There are still people in my neighbourhood who have the “grey water in use” signs for their garden. But I don’t know if it’ll get that bad - we have the desalination plant now… just means things will likely more expensive (watch Bunnings run a cartel on buckets now hahah)
I already use zero mains so can’t wait to explain at great depth the ridiculous rainwater capture and greywater filtering system I built…
God, that was a time wasn’t it - the constant articles about whether it was “Australian to dob a neighbour in”, the side-long glances people would get for clearly using rainwater while everyone else was taking 2-minute showers. Updates on how low the reserves are. Geez… I do not miss that.
