Stuart Maguire, a local environmentalist, demonstrates that it is possible to build a green sustainable suburban house in Melbourne.
Their nett electricity consumption from the grid is zero.
Plus their mains water consumption used only for drinking purposes is a meagre 23 litres per day. Water for the garden, toilets, showers, washing etc is either rain water or recycled grey water.
Stuart has demonstrated many of the problems making todays front page news can be solved through local individual action. So true and Stuart and his family ought to be commended.
The Age has a short video.
