I live in an area known as The Northern Rivers. In Far Northern New South Wales. The town is called Nimbin (sister city to Woodstock in USA). I collect rain water for drinking and ground water from the dam. It is Summer here and hot with good rain falls. I live in a semi rainforest area on 15 acres, in the middle of a jungle!!!! We just installed another tank for our drinking and water usage. This was a lot of work and took more of my time up. But it is clean, sweet tasting drinking water. The ‘Water Is Life’ billboard photo didn’t come out as we were moving fast along the freeway. I have a photo of “The Drain Is Just For Rain – Our Environment Is A Living Thing”. As well as 6 River Poles (power poles) colorfully painted by various artists from around this area about keeping our rivers clean by reducing pollution and run-off from the streets. The art was inspired by the late environmental activist and architect, Hundertwasser.
