@wayneduv @DadaMorero @CityofJoburgZA But yet residents have to pay the monthly fee regardless and have to source private services at additional costs.

Residents should not be required to pay for non-delivery. Simple as that.

No service, no fee.

DeputyJack was in Ermelo to identity the source of the pollution that flows into the Vaal River. The white fluff in this stream is from ammonia, and there’s also E. Coli - Jacob Durr explains how it poisons his farm which he would like to expand with extra workers.

Shocking! Where is this?

If this is near one of the DA-run City of Cape Town sewerage outflows where MUCH more toxicity is allowed to be pumped into the ocean than should be, it must be investigated!

To grow and create jobs, SA needs investment in crucial sectors like mining.

Instead, we see the mining sector getting G.W.E.D.E'd: Giving Wealth to Elites while Destroying Employment.

The solution? Obliterate obstacles. Remove barriers. That's exactly what the Growth and Employment in Mining Bill does.

Hartbeespoort Dam is so polluted that a hyacinth mat covers the surface, with plastic bags, bottles, polystyrene, and even old shoes piling up on top. Photos in the article show the mess.

California's $2.2 billion solar plant is shutting down.

Once hailed as a breakthrough, the Ivanpah Solar Facility in the Mojave Desert is now a case study in failed technology and environmental risk.

Built with $1.6 billion in federal loans in 2014, the plant was hailed as a symbol of America's clean energy future. It used 173,000 mirrors to focus sunlight onto three massive towers heating fluid to drive steam turbines.

Complicated.
Expensive.
And it never delivered on its promise.

After just 11 years, the technology is now obsolete.

On top of that, the facility became notorious for its environmental toll, with estimates of at least 6,000 birds incinerated each year by the concentrated beams.

The promise was affordable, reliable, green power. The reality was high costs, technical failures and ecological damage.

The @CityofCT is planning major population growth inside the #Koeberg #nuclear emergency zone without confirming safe evacuation is possible. Safety is deferred, concealed & treated as a late-stage admin exercise instead of a primary constraint.

@RomanCabanac @RadioRaps The Kruger is overburnt with so-called "controlled burning". In 2023 about 45% (i.e. 900 000 ha) was burnt. This year, due to very high rainfall, they will again burn 45%.
The overburning destroys the veld and kills biodiversity. Also insufficient recovery times between burns.

"To fund the NHI, personal income tax contributions would need to increase by 2.2 times.

...a 115% increase in tax from the current average rate of 21% to an average rate of 46% of income.

This was revealed as part of the HFA's legal challenge"
