 Water is one of the most important natural resources for humans and our environment. Clean water supports a healthy ecosystem and thereby our own health. However, the reverse is also true: a healthy ecosystem generates and maintains a clean water supply and hence benefits our own health.
Sydney’s water resources are under pressure from the increasing demand for, and consumption of, town water supplies by the Sydney community. Population growth, lifestyle changes and the uncertainty of future climate change make the extent of these pressures difficult to measure.

In response to these challenges, City Of Ryde has initiated programs to improve the health of our waterways, reduce its own water consumption and to educate and assist the community in water conservation measures. We can work together to combat these challenges. If you are interested in installing a rainwater tank, we have produced a simple information guide to help you make the most of the rebates available.
