* Die betrokkenes by ons water en elektrisiteit kry nie skaam vir wat hier aangaan in Suid-Afrika nie en is om ons totaal te vernietig dat ons van dors en honger moet uitsterf. Dit gaan al so sedert 1994 - misdaad regeer die land. Waarom word daar soveel ministers op nasionale en provinsiale vlakke… Continue reading Water and Pollution – Rooiwal Waste Water Treatment Plant

Lake Victoria – Africa
Before the 1960's, the lake had had high fish species diversity of more than 500 fish species, mostly local cichlids, carps, and minnows, but these were reduced to less than 300 species after the Nile perch was introduced, which caused a decrease in the clearness of the water. The lake generates over 150 million dollars… Continue reading Lake Victoria – Africa
Mabola – Wakkerstroom
Everyone has the right to an environment that is not harmful to their health or well-being; and to have the environment protected, for the benefit of present and future generations, through reasonable legislative and other measures that prevent pollution and ecological degradation; promote conservation; and secure ecologically sustainable development and use of natural resources while… Continue reading Mabola – Wakkerstroom
Mining and water – Cullinan mine
Where are all the Councillors of the Metro Tshwane? An estimated 300 000 people in the East of Pretoria won't have access to running water for the foreseeable future - and who is responsible for that? Where are the management, the engineers, the plumbers, the health inspectors, etc? Do those 300 000 pay… Continue reading Mining and water – Cullinan mine
Ramaphosa: Weermag – besoedelingbeheer
Ons land lyk oral sleg - as dit nie die besoedeling van die Vaalrivier en dam is nie, is dit die Oranje of ander riviere. Pateties dat munisipaliteite nie hul Verordeninge nakom of selfs staatsdepartemente en ministers wat nie die besighede opvolg wat besoedel, hetsy lug, water of see. Volgende foto's is in Midrand geneem. … Continue reading Ramaphosa: Weermag – besoedelingbeheer
Water (purification) – Science news
Using light, a prototype “green” material can purify enough daily drinking water for four people in just one hour. In tests, it killed nearly 100 percent of bacteria in 10 liters of water, researchers report February 7 in Chem. Materials scientist Guoxiu Wang of the University of Technology Sydney and colleagues created ultrathin sheets of graphitic… Continue reading Water (purification) – Science news
Pollution: South African HOTSPOT – Eskom power stations – Witbank
Witbank is not "White" anymore. You can not see anything there. Coal power stations are the biggest culprits in the hotspot area. Greenpeace says an analysis of sophisticated satellite data shows Mpumalanga as the “worst” nitrogen dioxide (NO2) air pollution hotspot across six continents. It has been reported before that the Witbank area has… Continue reading Pollution: South African HOTSPOT – Eskom power stations – Witbank
Water pollution South Africa – Vaal, etc.
Besoedelde water word gepomp en snel voort na die damme wat vir drinkwater gebruik word. Is hierdie besoedeling aspris, dat daar geen onderhoude gedoen word, dat grond makliker bekombaar word vir minerale? Raw sewage and other kinds of pollutions were pumped into our rivers and dams for decades. Is this on purpose to get their… Continue reading Water pollution South Africa – Vaal, etc.
Raw sewage into the Vaaldam
Die Vaalrivier behoort nie aan iemand spesifiek nie, maar miljoen kry water hiervandaan terwyl ander dit gebruik as 'n ontspanning soos bootry of visvang. Watter vis kan mens nog eet wat so gekontamineer is? 80% van die rioolnetwerke funksioneer nie behoorlik nie. Wat maak munisipaliteite met inkomstes wat genereer word uit belastings? Hoeveel informele sektore… Continue reading Raw sewage into the Vaaldam
Pollution Vaaldam and rivers
Dis eintlik skandalig dat daar nie onderhoud gedoen word op rioolnetwerke nie. Munisipaliteite verdien heelwat eiendomsbelasting en dit sluit rioolverwydering hierby in. Stadsbeplanningskemas en ingenieurs maak juis voorsiening vir rioolverwyderings, en daar is 'n wanbegrip dat daar nie betaal word voor nie. Dit word op state voorsien wanneer daar erfbelastings betaal word. Dit raak ons… Continue reading Pollution Vaaldam and rivers
Pollution Vaalriver – raw sewage
Sewage has been running into the Vaal River for years, but the problem grew worse this year after the cash-strapped local municipality was unable to perform maintenance and infrastructure upgrades. Why do they not employ responsible officials to do the work? Unbelievable and a risk of lives. National Defence is helping - see their shocking… Continue reading Pollution Vaalriver – raw sewage
Vaalriver / dam pollution / besoedeling
Rou riool word al vir 'n geruime tyd in die riviere wat die Vaaldam voed, gepomp. Daar was vroeer berigte sowel foto's geneem waar rou riool direk in die riviere ingepomp word wat die dam voed en miljoene mense van water voorsien. Intussen vang mense te lekker vis en daar is geen manier as hierdie… Continue reading Vaalriver / dam pollution / besoedeling
Water – Besoedeling/Pollution
Natuurlik is ons water nie 100% veilig om te gebruik as waargeneem word wat in riviere afspoel, op pad na die groter damme wat uiteindelik in die krane beland nadat dit "gesuiwer" is en die res op pad na die oseaan. Nie almal het die gerief van 'n kraan nie en nog minder die… Continue reading Water – Besoedeling/Pollution
