Australia to recycle drinking water
|
|
Queensland, a state in Australia, plans to introduce recycled sewage to its drinking water as a record drought threatens water supplies, officials said Jan. 29.
Falling dam levels have left the Queensland government with no choice but to introduce recycled water next year in the state's southeast — one of Australia's fastest-growing urban areas.
Australian farms and most cities are in the grip of the nation's worst drought in a century, with some areas receiving below-average rainfall for a decade. (AP)
