Prompt
Make me a poster for school 1. Most of Hong Kong’s water is imported from Dongjiang from Mainland China. This is because Hong Kong does not have big rivers or lakes to sustain by itself. These water are brought in by huge pipes that reach almost 83 Kilometers. And the government pays about 5 million dollars each year for the imported water from Dongjiang. Then, Hong Kong has 17 large reservoirs to store these water, after that, the Hong Kong Government used seawater for flushing in public toilets which saved many usable freshwater every day. Hong Kong’s Government also started using the reservoirs to collect rainwater, then use a desalination plant to filter them into drinkable water. This covers about 20-30% of all Hong Kong’s demand, but the water from Dongjiang is the most reliable.
