SAVE OUR SEPPO:
is a lively, funny and musical info-comedy about water and waste, with lots of information delivered in an easy-going way for kids and adults. This 22 minute video is part of a major community education program for better sewage management ( the NSW Septic Safe Program ), produced for the Australian public by the NSW Department of Local Government and Byron Shire Council. It is both entertaining and effective for helping improve Australia's water quality, and is now being distributed through local Councils for loan to residents, schools and community groups. The film is relevant to all people who create sewage, whether treated on their own site or piped away to centralised systems, and ends with a series of ads by the sewage service industry and the Natural Heritage Trust ~ Waterwatch Australia program.
