So is this something we could expect elsewhere?
voice-verified
Yeah.
voice-verified
Yeah, that's possible.
voice-verified
It's quite an extraordinary picture, you know, to imagine that there could be standpipes.
voice-verified
And I think a lot of people, even the idea of that, the prospect that that could possibly happen, a lot of people might feel very frustrated because we still live in a very wet nation.
voice-verified
It rained throughout winter and winter.
voice-verified
A lot of people will be asking themselves, well, why didn't we manage our water better?
voice-verified
You know, these droughts now are coming more frequently.
voice-verified
Why aren't we better prepared for them?
voice-verified
Yeah, that's a great question.
voice-verified
Yes, because it's funny you mention the reservoirs because we always hear about this stat that no new reservoirs have been built since 1992.
voice-verified
Clearly, there's a real lag in terms of the infrastructure we need versus the infrastructure we actually currently have.
voice-verified
Coming up, how can we be more like our water-conscious European neighbours?
voice-verified
And so on the side of the water companies, fixing leaks, getting this infrastructure in the ground started.
voice-verified
But what about on the individual level?
voice-verified
When we do need to preserve water, what kinds of things should we be doing?
voice-verified
Yeah, great
voice-verified
And clearly we need to think more carefully about our water resources.
voice-verified
We are going to be facing more droughts in the future.
