Brilliant crap as always from Dr Estuary.

Violent entropy.. what crap ye doth spout... perhaps you should merge with gentle enthalpy and disappear into a puff of nothingness.

Individual, spot on, and we could do it, but the pollies and bluffocrats like waste as it gives them something to do and crisis manage.. Benign dictatorship is looking so sweet these days!!

Organisations like Sydney Water suffer from political interference and what tends to occur is the management becomes political while the politicians become the problem solvers and one gets rubbishy results that serve no real objective.
A good strategy usually has a longer term than the political cycle, so we cant have this, we need things pollies can put a plaque on. The real strategy of closing the urban water cycle by returning purified water to the head of the source would solve all these problems. But we have old school health regulators, the same ones that gave us the Ruby Princess, hotel breaches in December 2020 and June 2021 that closed most of Sydney down for the want of a basic management process. That these same regulators apply with passion resistence to the concept of purified water returning to the head of source for urban centres like Sydney. FFS its done in so many places.
