Only rain down the drain
We’ve had a lot of rain recently, and all of this rain has washed what was on peoples lawns, berms, driveways, streets and in the gutters, into our stormwater network.
The water entering our stormwater network does not get treated, this means EVERYTHING flows directly into our streams, rivers, and eventually our ocean.
Put any ‘waste’, such as cigarette butts, dog poo, or rubbish, into a rubbish bin.
Let’s all look after our waterways, and remember only rain down the drain.

Poll: Have you ever had a scary flight?
A plane flying from Christchurch to Wellington on Sunday had smoke billowing out of the engine and upon landing, passengers had to open the emergency exit and jump out. Have you had any scary flying experiences?
