DATELINE - WEDNESDAY 21st March 8.30pm, SBS

'This week we have a special environmental edition of the show – coinciding
with World Water Day tomorrow. First up David O'Shea checks out Singapore's
bold iniatives to solve its water shortage - including desalination and
using water recycled from sewage. Even the mention of these two options
stirs heated debate in this drought stricken country. And if you've ever
wanted to find out what the stuff tastes like – both recycled and
desalinated that is - don't miss George's taste test at the end of the
story.

You'll also hear from two world authorities on climate change about new
iniatives underway in Britain and Europe which promise to bring about a
dramatic reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Our climate gurus also
discuss developments in the United States and have a few words of wisdom on
what Australia should or should not be doing.

Our last story profiles Chinese Australian Dr Zhenrong Shi, an
environmentalist and billionaire entrepreneur. Dr Shi spent over fourteen
years studying, researching and developing solar panel technology in
Australia and then built a multi-million dollar company based in China. So
why did he leave Australia to set up shop in China? And why does he really
think he can save the planet?'
