Downloaded from hlayiso.com Global warming Africa at high risk as global warming set to wreak havoc – floods and disease expected to worsen Michael McCarthy LONDON: The world’s poor – and Africa in particular – will be the hardest hit by global warming this century, says a UN report on climate change. Heavier floods all over the world, worse droughts, more violent storms, failing agriculture and spreading disease can be expected, the report warns. The underprivileged and destitute in developing countries will feel the impact the most, and the income gap with developed countries will widen. The report is the official view of the UN’s intergovernmental panel on climatic change (IPCC). The 1 000-page study complements a similar report on the science of global warming and concludes that the world’s average temperature will rise by up to 6 C by 2100 with sea levels rising by an average of up to 88 cm. In high latitudes the temperature is likely to be greater than the average. This means glaciers and polar icecaps melting, countless species of animals, plants and bird life dying out, farmland turning to desert, fish-supporting coral reefs destroyed, and low-lying island states in the Pacific and Caribbean under water. Northern hemisphere countries would probably become hotter, bringing a rise in deaths from heatstroke in cities and the onset of tropical diseases like malaria and West Nile virus. Africa, already suffering severe economic and social problems, would be most vulnerable to the effects of the warming. Disease levels could shoot up, especially in crowded cities along the coast, which could also face a rise in sea level. In Europe, the southern counties are more likely to be affected, with an increased risk of water shortage and deterioration in soil quality that would affect agriculture. In more northerly countries, flooding will be worse and tropical diseases can become endemic. Roger Higman, Friends of the Earth’s senior climate campaigner said: ‘This catastrophe was made in the rich countries of the north. Governments in industrial countries must agree to radical cuts in our use of coal, oil and gas, and a big increase in the use of renewable power. If we do not act now, it will be too late.’ The world’s governments will meet in Germany this year to try and agree on ways of achieving the Kyoto protocol on greenhouse gases. 1.4.1.

CONDUCTING THE ARGUMENTATIVE ESSAY • Your essay must be argumentative and relevant to the group of articles that you have sourced. • Definition of an Argumentative Essay An argumentative essay is a type of essay that presents arguments about both sides of an issue. It could be that both sides are presented equally balanced, or it could be that one side is presented more forcefully than the other. It all depends on the writer, and what side he supports the most. The general structure of an argumentative essay follows this format: o Introduction: Attention Grabber, Background, Information, Statement. o Body: Body paragraphs (Each paragraph should present a major argument that you want to convey to the reader). o Counterargument: An argument to refute earlier arguments and give weight to the actual position.
Downloaded from hlayiso.com o Conclusion: Rephrasing the statement, major points, call to attention, or concluding remarks. {{{ • Function of an Argumentative Essay o An argumentative essay presents both sides of an issue. However, it presents one side more positively or meticulously than the other one, so that readers could be swayed to the one the author intends. The major function of this type of essay is to present a case before the readers in a convincing manner, showing them the complete picture. • Examples: o Importance of the atmosphere. o Causes and effects of ozone depletion. o Reducing ozone depletion. o Greenhouse Effect. o Global warming: evidence, causes, and consequences, with reference to Africa. o Impact of climate and climate change on Africa’s environment and people. o U.S. President, Donald Trump’s view on climate change and global warming being a “hoax” As opposed to; Teenage climate change activist, Greta Thunberg’s view of climate change being; an existential (relating to the existence of) crisis that humanity is currently faced with.

CURRICULUM CONTENT: GLOBAL WARMING Global warming is burning the Earth. Sir James Bevan, Chief Executive of the Environment Agency Royal Society 24 September 2018 Greta Thumberg’s UN speech: ... “Change is coming whether you like it or not” Global warming is one of the problems which the whole world is aware of. It can be said that it is the product of society’s development without giving much concern to nature. Countries are addressing this problem to try and find a solution to this problem. The recent studies in this sphere have proved beyond a shadow of doubt that the temperature of the atmosphere is increasing each year. The increase in the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is considered as the contributing reason for this global phenomenon. This has caused an increase of the temperature by about 1 degree Fahrenheit per year.
Downloaded from hlayiso.com It is not just the responsibility of the various governments to take steps for preventing this. It is high time to make strong decisions and unite to protect our land and the planet from dilapidation. Each one of us has a duty to do what we can, to prevent this imminent disaster. Some simple steps are enough in order to prevent this big problem. Bill Gates says ending COVID-19 pandemic 'easier' than solving climate change. Cutting greenhouse gas emissions takes the collective effort of governments around the world, Gates said. Microsoft co-founder and billionaire climate activist Bill Gates on Sunday claimed that eradicating climate change would be harder than ending the coronavirus pandemic. Gates, who has funnelled millions into coronavirus relief efforts over the past year, told the BBC that ending the pandemic is "very, very easy" in comparison to the climate crisis, which will get worse unless governments worldwide aid in this effort. In fact, Gates said that funding a solution to climate change would "the most amazing thing humanity has ever done." Currently, the world emits about 50 billion tonnes of greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere each year. The goal is to lower emissions net zero, which means attaining an equal balance between the greenhouse gases that are put into the atmosphere and the greenhouse gases that are taken out. Cutting these emissions takes the collective effort of governments around the world, he argued. "We need to have price signals to tell the private sector that we want green products," Gates said. Governments will not only have to heavily invest in the research and development of new green products, but they will also have to allow for these products and technologies to grow in the market, the outlet reported. Although this effort takes more than just one person, Gates said during an interview on CBS' "60 minutes" that he is paying $7 million a year to offset his own carbon footprint. Aside from his own efforts, Gates is encouraging others -- if they can afford to do so -- to buy carbon offsets and green products which may get move the world closer to net-zero emissions. His hope is that in doing so, the production cost for reducing carbon emissions will decline while the quality of products will increase. Although it will be hard, Gates said it is not impossible. "There are days when it looks very hard," he said. "If people think it is easy, they're wrong. If people think it is impossible, they're wrong."

FIGURE 1.5 Brain drain loading: SA’s ’emigration exodus’ is causing a major problem Wherefore art thou, skilled workers? South Africa is losing its brightest sparks to mass emigration while struggling to find replacements. by Head 22-10-2021 South Africa is losing skilled workers faster than it can hire replacements from abroad, sparking a wave of concern amongst some of the biggest companies in the country. That’s according to Marisa Jacobs of Xpatweb, who claimed this week that an ’emigration exodus’ of highly-trained workers is creating a brain drain on our shores. EMIGRATION EXODUS LEAVES TOP JOBS EMPTY Jacobs has identified that many South Africans are choosing to pursue international opportunities, in order to earn more money and potentially create opportunities for their families back home. However, as our best and brightest flock overseas, the same enthusiasm for skilled workers to ply* their trade in SA is missing: “It cannot be ignored that a contributor to the ever-increasing skills shortages in South Africa, is the exodus of skilled and experienced professionals moving abroad. Their motivation is to pursue international exposure, take advantage of earning a foreign currency, gain global experience, and create opportunities for their families.” “The big concern is indeed the sad loss of South African professionals who have chosen to emigrate. However, it has also raised another glaring concern. There are companies in dire need of filling key positions to conduct their business.” “Failure to find suitable South African candidates for these roles has resulted in Human Resource professionals casting their lines further afield with the hopes of snagging professionals abroad.” | Marisa Jacobs *ply - use [Adapted from https://www.thesouthafrican.com/news/south-africa/emigration-south-africa-lacking-skilled - workers-how-to-apply/ ] 1.5.1 Explain the term brain drain.

The project involves damming some of Lesotho's major rivers - most of which flow south into the Senqu (known to South Africans as the Orange River). This damming process has created large artificial lakes. The water from the lakes is then diverted north (through tunnels under the mountains) to South African rivers. These rivers lead to the Vaal Dam, which supplies the densely populated urban and industrial regions around Johannesburg and Pretoria. South Africa pays Lesotho royalties of around US$1.5 million a month for this water supply. The project was first thought of in the 1950s, but the treaty formalising the project was not signed until 1986. The project's objectives 1. To provide funds for Lesotho by transferring water from the catchment of the Senqu/Orange River in Lesotho to meet the growing demand for water in South Africa's major industrial and population centres. 2. To generate hydroelectric power for Lesotho. 3. To promote the general development of the remote and underdeveloped mountain regions of Lesotho. 4. To provide water for irrigation and drinking water supply. 2.3.1 Explain what is meant by water transfer. (1x1)(1) 2.3.2 (2x2)(4) Discuss the benefits for Lesotho and South Africa with the Lesotho Highlands Water Project 2.3.3 Give TWO activities that water is used for once it reaches South Africa. (2x1)(2) 2.3.4 (1x2)(2) Water is transported through tunnels to the rivers in South Africa. Explain why the tunnels are used and no other river channels to move the water.

Refer to FIGURE 2.4 showing Sustainable water use and then answer the questions that follow. FIGURE 2.4 Water Sustainability – Securing a sustainable future Water is a finite resource, meaning that it cannot be readily replaced by natural means at a pace quick enough to keep up with consumption. Water conservation is an issue that hits close to home for South Africans as our climate is classified as semi-arid, and with an average rainfall of 464mm per year, it ranks South Africa as one of the top 30 driest countries in the world. Due to the sensitivity of our climate, we have also been one of the first countries to experience the effects of climate change on our weather, causing the recent and ongoing droughts and floods in South Africa. These events are not isolated and affect vast areas of the country — areas that are also responsible for producing a large portion of food in South Africa. With an increase in extreme weather events, the conservation of water as one of the building blocks of life is essential. Current water levels in South African agriculture According to the National Business Initiative (NBI), the agricultural industry uses roughly 60% of the available water in South Africa. Therefore, it is no surprise that it is one of the first to feel the effects of the lack and mismanagement of water. The incorrect management of water and wastewater can lead to a whole host of environmental and social issues, including water shortages, soil erosion, aquifer salinisation, and pollution, all of which affect the ability of farmers to produce crops sustainably and cost-effectively. To effectively reduce the pressure placed on our water resources, we need to mitigate and reduce the risks associated with improper water management whilst encouraging the continuous improvement of management practices. The mismanagement of water and wastewater by one person has the potential to affect whole communities downstream; therefore, every person needs to do their part in ensuring South Africa’s water future. Every drop counts when it comes to sustainable water management, including safe and appropriate treatment and disposal of wastewater generated.

GENERAL INFORMATION ON TUGELA INFORMATION: TUGELA The uThukela River originates as a stream on the 3 050 m high Mont-aux-Sources plateau near the merger point of the Lesotho-Free State provincial borders. Its upper course, which lies within Royal Natal National Park, flows through the Drakensberg range before coming down fast through a series of waterfalls having a total drop of 948 m. The river cuts through the Tugela Gorge at the foot of the escarpment (about 1,500 m above sea level) and is quickly joined by many tributaries. The uThukela River ends its course of 502 km at the Indian Ocean, about 84 km north of Durban. The mouth is almost completely blocked in times of normal flow by a sandbar. Its narrow valley and alluvial deposits restrict irrigation. The climate in this area is mild and generally warm and temperate. The summers have a good deal of rainfall, while the winters have very little. The average annual temperature is 19,4°C at the Tugela Mouth resort and the average annual rainfall is 679 mm.
