Show Notes
South Africas wastewater treatment plants face a critical crisis, with nearly half now at high risk, according to the latest Green Drop Report. This means raw sewage is contaminating rivers, wetlands, and groundwater, disproportionately affecting the poorest communities. While the Blue Drop Report on drinking water shows a slight improvement, the situation remains dire. A new committee is pushing for fixes, but without proper maintenance and anti-vandalism measures, the rivers remain at risk.
