Do you want your children and grandchildren to grow up in a place where the sea is unpolluted and safe to swim in, there is an abundance of marine life, and streams are flowing with fresh, clean water?

Each year thousands of litres of paint, detergent, oil, concrete washings, chlorine and other chemicals enter outside drains and the stormwater system, finishing up untreated in our streams, lake and beaches.

Visit our sustainable living display at this year’s Home and Garden Show for tips on things you can do to help protect our waters and ensure you aren’t contributing to the pollution problem.

Remember outside drains only drain rain, and if you see a pollution incident, report it immediately by calling Actionline on 486 8600.
