Preventing
Pollution
By
preventing pollutants from entering surface water and groundwater,
our rivers, lakes, reservoirs and aquifers will continue to
provide freshwater. Chemical and oil spills, and leachates
from ground contamination are the major threats to freshwater.
Bunding potential liquid pollutants, monitoring effluent,
reducing discharges, using cleaner production techniques and
ensuring proper waste disposal are some of the measures to
prevent pollution.

Choice
of water
Grey water recycling consists of harvesting
rainwater from the roof, filtering and storing it for later
use and recycling water that has already been used.
Grey water suffers from images of filthy waste
from washing machines. Yet, correctly treated grey water is
as clean and clear as the water you would find in a swimming
pool - something most people have no qualms about jumping
into. This is more than adequate to flush the toilet.
