This years our news in Sweden has reported several times about the drought in Australia. Is it as bad as they say it is?

I'm not currently in Australia but my parents just advised that they currently have "water restrictions". Which means you can only wash the car on Saturdays using 2 buckets of water and you can only water the garden on Sundays from 8pm till 10pm, so it must be quite bad at the moment

And of course with drought come the terrifying prospect of forest and bush fires I would imagine.

Yes I can't really imagine how it would be like. Still, millions and millions of people have it harder, every day. I mean, when I flush my toilett I waste 10 liters of fresh water, many people dont even have that for a whole week!

And really. Only being allowed to clean your car on saturdays and only water the garden once a week isn't really that big of deal.

Yes, that is true!
