WATER & WASTE EDUCATION

Water Education; the Story of Drinking Water

New Zealand Water & Waste Association and the Water Supply Managers Group have developed an information booklet, The Story of Drinking Water. Copies of the booklet are circulated. The booklet describes the water cycle and discusses availability, properties, treatment, uses and costs of drinking water. This 16 page colour booklet is an excellent education tool that can be read and enjoyed by everyone from school children to seniors.
