Water
We live in the driest inhabited continent in the world.
We cannot waste water in the manner we have and expect this country to continue to nurture us.
Our primary producers have a right to access high quality water in sufficient amounts in order to ensure viability of their farms and our communities.We must reduce the amount of water being diverted from the Murray Darling system to ensure sufficient water is available where it is needed. Climate Change
Experts around the world are still arguing over this issue.
It has been said that even if there was a 30% chance, we should as a matter of risk management, do all we can to avoid climate change.
We could easily lead Australia in green technology, whilst attracting investment and employment opportunities for our children.
