FIGURE 1.6: IMPACT OF HUMANS ON DRAINAGE BASINS
VAAL RIVER UNDER PRESSURE
Sipho Masondo | The Times Live
The Vaal River and its catchment system are becoming increasingly toxic/
poisoned – posing a threat to health, the economy and food production in four
provinces.
Water scientists and other experts describe the Vaal River – which supplies water to
Gauteng, the country's economic and industrial powerhouse, as well as to farmers in
Gauteng, North West, the Free State and Northern Cape – as 'in crisis' and 'under
siege' by polluters. Since the 1990s, the Department of Water Affairs has pumped
water from the Lesotho Highlands into the river to supplement the water supply. This
water is increasingly needed to dilute the pollution.
Said Krige: 'We are using expensive drinking water to sort out the problem of
pollution. Dilution is not a solution to pollution.'
The water in the Vaal River system will eventually cost far more to treat, leaving
companies such as Sasol and Eskom to pay more for the chemicals needed to treat
the water before they use it. This will increase their costs.

FIGURE 3.4: INFORMAL SETTLEMENTS
BUCKETS, PITS AND POVERTY
26 September 2014, 00:00
By Tiisetso Makube
The first thing you notice as you enter Tsakana Extension Six is that the road, or
whatever they call it, is almost impassable. But we hesh (as they say in the
township, meaning 'hustle') in our small car, to get around. But the going is not
easy. There are furrows here and there from soil erosion. There are stones, small
boulders even, that really make driving here a difficult exercise. Thousands of
residents in various informal settlements across the Western Cape also have no
proper access to water and sanitation. Many households, mostly in rural areas and
townships, continue to use the bucket system, or remain without access to
adequate sanitation services.

FIGURE 4.4: URBAN RENEWAL IN SOUTH AFRICA
IN JOHANNESBURG, URBAN RENEWAL MEANS
DISPLACEMENT FOR THE POOR
By Skylar Reidon, 25 April 2014, 17:34
Jabu Khwela was rehearsing a monologue for his theatre class one morning when he
heard the sirens and then the shouting of private security guards outside his home.
Minutes later, the 20-year-old student and his family were forced onto the street with all
their belongings. Along with 50 other low-income residents, they were being evicted
from the living spaces they had informally rented without a contract in an old building in
Jeppestown. Khwela's family and their neighbours were displaced to make way for the
redevelopment of the gritty (dusty) area into Maboneng, an arts mecca with pricey loft
apartments, upmarket cafés and independent movie theatres.

FIGURE 4.5: CATTLE FARMING
SOUTH AFRICA'S BEEF INDUSTRY: WHAT DOES THE FUTURE HOLD?
12:00 (GMT+2), Saturday 31 August 2013
By Lloyd Phillips
While South Africa has what appears to be a thriving beef industry, its average
productivity, compared with that of other countries, shows that it is not achieving its full
potential. This is partly due to the low productivity of our informal beef farming sector.
This problem needs to be corrected. The South African beef industry is in a position to
take advantage of Africa's increasing middle-class expenditure and increased
population growth from one billion to two billion people by 2050 – and the associated
demand for red meat. In recent years there have been worldwide improvements in beef
feeding practices and herd quality through the use of modern technologies. These
technologies have failed to find their way into South Africa's informal beef farming
sector. Due to several factors, including environmental concerns, the national beef
herd cannot be increased, and existing production methods therefore need to be
improved.
