To be fair, it does appear to be talking about water-thirsty non-native species being chopped down, lol I question their maths, though - 'usage almost halved from 780 megalitres to 550 megalitres'? Remind me to go to their bank and ask to withdraw half my money...

I've been sealing various heat escape routes around the door and window frames. Already made a difference. Also picked up on a trick, if you're having a shower, do it in a bath tub and leave the used warm water in the bath to disapate into the house instead of just sending it down the drain pipe.

Found both of these quite interesting:
Didn't know only ball bearing turbos need a restrictor in the oil feed.

scottydugg - some non-BB ones also take an oil restrictor, and I'm fairly sure the really small td04-13t scooby turbos. also, if you've ever heard of a 'turbo timer' - that's one of the very japanese approaches to the oil cooked-in-a-hot-turbo situation. Personally, I just take it easy the last few minutes of the journey.

Yeah that's exactly how I was intending doing it, essentially what I do already. The turbo flutter guys got quite a few interesting videos.
