The government has a responsibility to do their homework and come up with a long term environmentally friendly solution to the water problem, and not put it in the too hard basket.

It simply isn't enough that we talk about these problems, each and everyone of us much act. We must be the change we want to see in the world. Through strength and unity, we will be heard and through strength and unity, we will see this desalination plant scrapped and better, more sustainable options take its place

So far the government has asked the public to reduce water consumption and the public has responded with good will. How about the government organising major projects to try and collect the rain water that ends up in the bay? We have enough rain water - the problem is collecting it. THe government wants an easy "solution". Easy "solution" have tragic consequences.

Collective action will create sustainable solutions. Our problem is about the MANAGEMENT of water. Melbourne has BILLION's of litres of WASTED water. Our government should be INSPIRING individuals, industry, local councils, and rural Victoria to better MANAGE our water. Providing a streamlined platform and support for local investment in local infrastructure would be the catalyst to convert INSPIRATION in to ACTION.

The desalination proposal by the Brumby Govt is contradictory to their pre-election water policy, and is not supported by engineering or science based study as the most sustainable, economic or environmentally best option to meet Melbourne's water needs. It appears driven by a policy to centralise water supply control to corporatise Melbourne Water for sell off, without other merit.
