@H2ODraganSavic (Being really picky the title also confused me - talks about PHC but data is PCC, adds another level of uncertainty to Liz’s point on data quality)
@H2ODraganSavic Whenever I see / hear this I always wonder why consumption drops. Is it one off action like becoming aware & fixing a leak or a more fundamental change in water use? How long does the reduction in consumption continue?
More rivers are drying up by the day.
👂Tune into @itvanglia @ 6pm to hear our @ursula_juta talking about the impact on our wildlife #water#drought#ClimateCrisis
Because of my @CIWM membership, my #CEnv has also been significant part of my career. Definitely recommend applying - you won't regret it! #CIWM can also help you find a mentor.

When you want a cold glass of water, do you run the tap or do you put a jug of water in the fridge to chill?
You can save 5 litres of water each time by using a jug instead of running the tap.
Chilling water in the fridge can remove the cloudiness and bubbles.
