"Let the permanence of land remain intact, let water abound."

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

Chlöe Swarbrick (Green Party Co-leader)

“Power in politics belongs to those who turn up … When faced with the kind of blatant resource and power grab that only money can buy, successful resistance lies in the power of regular people.”

Quote from: Green Party ‘State of the Planet speeches, 2024’. Posted by Chlöe Swarbrick and Marama Davidson, May 19, 2024

ABOUT WISE WATER USE

Wise Water Use is a collaboration of Hawke's Bay residents interested in the sustainable and fair use of water in our district. We believe that this finite resource should be utilised more wisely before considering expensive rate-payer funded engineering water storage projects.
