New Zealand's green attitude

A focus on ecological responsibility is commonplace here.  People remind each other to turn off the lights and to recycle.  Solar energy, passive and geothermal heat pumps, and rooftop water cisterns are found throughout the city.

Here's an example in a little sign I noticed in the restroom at the University.

Well, now, rain cisterns on the roofs! That's exactly what I wish WE had. So sensible, even in our climate, where adequate rain falls each year and there are easily accesible and plentiful aquifers.
