Britain has been recycling water for years i perticular London. The water tastes fine, no worse than"fresh" water over here. In britain they also have water meters that get checked like your electricity, the more you use the higher the bill.

very interesting thread guys. Some smart people out there. We are certainly doing our bit by not wasting water in our cars 👍. This is something im going to have to look at over the next decade as im studying Environmental Planning/Urban and Regional Planning... So some of you engineers and technicians beware, i might ask you for some help with assignments 😵‍💫:beer

okay...let me make this even simplier....and this is what i tell my friends...

Question. so...u wont drink water thats been treated time and time again...because it was onc sewerage?
Answer....no
Q. Why
A. Cause people peed and pooed in it.
Q. Didn't u go to lcoal public pool?
A. Yes...
Q. Did u ever swollow any of the water?
A. Of course...y?
Q. Do u honestly think every person jumping into those pools got out to pee? ANd the little babies? really? And don't forget...those little ones can poo quicker than the parents can get them to the side and get them out...
A. But they use chlorine...so u doesnt affect ppl...

Rebuttal: well....i guess its pretty obvious.....the government would do the same thing...with more treatment cycles, stronger chemicals etc. SO either stop drinking the damn pool water...or accept...ur already have drunk 'sewerage' ...and its okay...u didnt even grow a second head!

ive lived on our property for 30 yrs and have survived off tank water only being replenished by rainfull or having to buy a tanker load . all our trees where hand watered by buckets , cars washed from either buckets or when it was raining , my kids are very water wise and often tell their friends when they stay over to turn the tap off when brushing their teeth not to leave the tap running when they fill a glasss of water etc . it just comes as second nature to us . city folk just didnt know how good they had it . when the goverment built the sewer treatment plant at the gold coast seaway and pump millions of gallons of sewage out at night on the outgowing tides the greenies tryed to stop it and sugested it should be pumped to the downs to water crops etc ( to much money said the goverment ) now a few yrs down the track the exspence would have been nil to the savings in water and the profits from crops and veg etc . several yrs ago i had a bore sunk on our land and found unlimited drinking water even now we use it wisely as well , so dont worry chris ive got spring water on tap here or any other avd member lol .:thumb

All this talk of recycled water, people are scared, but it has to be done..

In europe the recycled water they get there from processing is so pure they actually have to put the minerals and stuff back in it so it can be drinkable.

You have nothing to fear, and besides we dont have a choice!

Too many stoopid people not stopping their water wastage and stoopid government who should have done something 10 years ago.....

just my 2c.

WATER

It has been scientifically proven that if we drink 1 litre of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli bacteria found in faeces, in other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poo!

HOWEVER, we do not run that risk when drinking beer (or rum, whiskey, vodka, other liquors) because alcohol has to go through a distillation process of boiling, filtering and fermenting.

So,

WATER = POO
BEER = HEALTH

Free yourself of Poo, drink BEER!!!

It is better to drink beer and talk shit than to drink water and be full of shit.

I do not think WOMEN are doing there part to save water. I have offered numerous women to share a shower with them (to conserve the precious fluid) but have been turned down everytime.
