Port St Johns had as much rain in 48 hrs as Langebaan would get in a year! Better catchment management could have mitigated some of the worst #Flood impacts from this extreme event @WWFSouthAfrica@KingTau_ @WWFWaterRisk

Inspired by nature, a squad of #WaterHeroes combined powers to fight an alien invasion and reconnect South Africans with nature: the true source of our water.

Three days, six water heroes, and an epic venture from small-town tap to source as we reconnected you with nature: the true source of our water. This was the #JourneyofWater 📸: @AustinMalema

You’re never too young to show your love for our planet. WWF has teamed up with @HM to offer an exclusive collection for children featuring some of the world’s most wonderful but at risk wildlife. Visit your nearest H&M to shop the range. @hmsouthafrica
It is the modest 'palmiet' plant that acts like a sponge by holding and slowly releasing water into a river system over time. Great to have Hakim (aka @TrashGodd ) and @MadoloLumka championing the water cause
A3: I do my best to educate my family and friends about the importance of saving water. I also live by example...taking shorter showers, and re-using water @WWFSouthAfrica@WWFSASSI#JourneyofWater#WaterHeroes
While "done" for 2019 - this initiative by @WWFSouthAfrica is a good reminder of the complexity of #Water. The more we educate ourselves of this complexity the more effective we can be at identifying solutions to its challenges #JourneyOfWater https://t.co/GwgRIguyeg @ColvinH2O
A1: A lack of understanding of where our water comes from has led to wasteful usage by our consumers. We need a better understanding and more appreciation for how water ends up at our taps! #JourneyofWater#WaterHeroes@WWFSouthAfrica
A1. Over consumption of water is a massive issue! The idea that water comes from a tap and that it will always be available is problematic, esp knowing that access to clean water is not something everyone enjoys in SA #JourneyofWater#WaterHeroes@WWFSouthAfrica
#DYK that South Africa is a water-scarce country? We receive only half the world’s average rainfall – less than 490mm a year. #WaterHeroes#JourneyofWater
