Auckland drought: Growing alarm about demand for water as dry conditions continue
Hi neighbours, the demand for water in Auckland is causing increasing concern, with one river at the lowest level it has been in nearly 40 years.
Water company Watercare said Auckland's water use is "skyrocketing" and people need to think before they turn their taps on.
Last week, previous water use records were broken three times, with the largest volume of 568 million litres used on February 19.
How have you reduced your water use this summer?
