How much water do you use?
Every day, we use water for drinking, bathing, cleaning, cooking and gardening.
Water flows so freely from our taps that we don’t give it a second thought. Every drop has been on an incredible journey from the water source to the treatment plant, several reservoirs and pipes.
This means tap water is precious, so we’re encouraging Aucklanders to use water wisely.
You can find a number of water-wise tips at waterforlife.org.nz. But, before you do that ponder this, how much water do you think Aucklanders use every day? Click on the video below to find out!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
