FED: We're worried about water, but millions do little about it

New research says three out of four Australians are worried by the nation's declining
fresh water stocks .. yet millions also admit to doing nothing to curb their household
use.

The survey by Roy Morgan shows more than 75 per cent of Australians rate themselves
as concerned or very concerned .. about our declining water levels.

Yet 1.5 million people say they're too busy to take steps to cut their water consumption.

Another 1.3 million say they simply don't care enough to save water.

The research also found 15 million Australians have no idea about how much water their
household uses every year.
