#30 - Water Night

CCW's very own Mike & Karen are joined by the CEO of Australia's The Water Conservancy, Chris Philpot, for a fascinating discussion of 'Water Night', an annual event supporting stronger action on climate change and water awareness. As part of the yearly event, individuals and households are asked to turn off all non-essential taps from 5-10 pm with the aim to improve water efficiency awareness leading to long-term behavioural change.
