    Can anyone name a river whose health improved when water was diverted from it. The Gellibrand already has significant amounts of water removed for use in Warrnambool and by farmers. Humans have stuffed up the Murray Darling system, the Gellibrand is a much smaller scale but none the less just as important for the Otways region. The problem with lack of water in Lake Colac is purely due to climate change. Perhaps conservative politicians such as Mr. Riordan would be better advised to address this much bigger problem.

    1. We used to call climate change global warming and before that it was called weather, rainfall has been average since it dried up it takes a couple of years of above average rain to fill it and if we get above average rain like we had in the 90s that overflowed the lake you would be on here blaming that on the climate change scam
