Country people set example for water-smart gardening. :"'Country people on the whole we find have always watered at night, or first thing in the morning, they've always mulched and this is something that I think suburban people are beginning to learn and are doing a lot more than they used to,' she said."
Yes, I get really cross when people put on sprinklers for kids to play in, especially when we live near the beach!! Nor do you need a hose to wash a car...a bucket of water works well. We do need to share our ideas and we do need to have it constantly put in front of us because some people literally leave taps running and dripping. I confess I am the secret tap turnerofferer wherever I find one dripping of running. I also report them in shopping centres. I shouldn't feel as though this is odd behaviour because no one else seems to care. It's a bit like the switch the lights off when you leave the room. Some of our habits are borne from having too much. We do need to think.
