Celebrate World Environment Day

How about we stencil them with ‘the next part of the water cycle’?

Yes, and from there back to you local Woollies. Or would we rather our fruit and veg to arrive by aircraft from ‘somewhere else’?

Sloppery…Perhaps just stencil them all with “the sea”.

I like the idea of having more information about the impact of what we do. So drain stencilling does sound like a good idea.

Sepi. What is drain stenciling?

Every drain goes somewhere. A drain might be labelled with a spray paint stencil, something like ” Lake Burley Griffin drainage.” What ever goes down that drain ends up in the lake.

Regrettably many people believe that drains go to the sewer treatment plant. They might be less likely to wash paint and other nasties down stormwater drains if they realised it goes straight to the neighbourhood park where their own kids play. Or at least their neighbours might be more likely to jump on such behaviour from others who don’t give a rat’s.

Stencilling where the water goes is about making that distinction clear. Something I support.

why does the box in the OP say ‘3 may’?

and discover simple water saving tips? or maybe learn them..? or is it perhaps like an easter egg hunt – ooh, look, behind this public art piece, a tip…

Win a compost bin?!?!? Man, I am so there!

You only used two words and still managed to misspell one of them. Touché.
