| Why
save water? Sure,
plenty of water falls
from the sky in Auckland,
but most of it runs into
the storm water system
and out to sea. The city
is growing rapidly, but
to meet demand it is cheaper
and more environmentally
sustainable to cut down
the amount of water we
are using per person than
to build another dam.
