Save on water

Water is not an endless resource and we need to start using water more wisely so Territorians can enjoy a good water supply tomorrow.

The Darwin Water Story tells the real story of water in Darwin, how much we use, how much we could save, and the options available to meet future demand.

Did you know:

  • On average, Territorians use more than twice the amount of water as the rest of Australia.
  • 60% of our household water is used in the garden.
  • The Territory is not immune to changing weather patterns and an increasing population is placing more demand on water resources.
  • Our water supply is finite and this precious resource should be treated wisely.
