# Die Suid-Afrikaanse Weerdiens sê twee frontale stelsels word hierdie week oor die land verwag. ‘n Kouefront sal vandag die kus aan die suidwestelike deel van die land bereik, wat nat, koue en winderige toestande oor die westelike dele van die Wes-Kaap sal meebring. ‘n Weervoorspeller, Lehlohonolo Thobela, sê die nat en koue toestande sal […]
# The South African Weather Service says two cold frontal systems are expected to develop this week. A cold front will make landfall over the south-western parts of the country today, resulting in wet, cold, and windy conditions over the western parts of the Western Cape. Weather forecaster, Lehlohonolo Thobela, says tomorrow the wet and […]
# Eskom se huidige beleid oor sonkragregistrasie is nie net wetlik dubbelsinnig en finansieel moeilik haalbaar nie, maar dit loop ook die gevaar om juis die verskuiwing na dringend noodsaaklike hernubare energie te ondermyn. Dit is die mening van die sake-ontwikkelingsbestuurder van IMPOWER, Matthew Cruise. Eskom het onlangs pogings verskerp om te verseker dat alle […]
# Die minister van Water en Sanitasie, Pemmy Majodina, sê sy is tevrede met die vordering wat gemaak is by die Rooiwal- en Klipdrift-watersuiweringsaanlegte in Hammanskraal. Die minister het onlangs die aanlegte besoek om die vordering met die opknapping en opgradering van die twee fasiliteite te beoordeel. Majodina sê Rooiwal is ‘n bron van besoedeling […]
# Die Tara Ocean Foundation berig plastiekbesoedeling in die see het sedert die 1970’s vererger. Groot stukke afval soos visnette maak jaarliks meer as ʼn miljoen seevoëls en 100-duisend seediere dood. Minder sigbare mikroplastiek wat deesdae selfs in die diepste oseaan-trôe aangetref word, ontwrig mikrobiese gemeenskappe en dra gifstowwe oor aan voedselkettings. Die stigting sê […]
# Water and Sanitation minister Pemmy Majodina says she is satisfied with the progress made at the Rooiwal wastewater treatment works and Klipdrift water treatment plant in Hammanskraal. The minister visited the water treatment plants recently to assess progress on refurbishing and upgrading the two facilities. Majodina says Rooiwal has been a source of pollution […]
# Eskom’s current solar registration policy is not only legally ambiguous and financially burdensome, but it also risks undermining the very shift to renewable energy that South Africa so urgently needs. This is according to IMPOWER business development executive Matthew Cruise. Eskom recently intensified efforts to ensure all grid-tied solar power systems are registered, regardless […]
# The Tara Ocean Foundation has reported that maritime plastic pollution has worsened since the 1970s. Large debris like fishing nets kill over one-million seabirds and 100-thousand marine mammals each year. Less visible microplastics, now found even in deep ocean trenches, have disrupted microbial communities and carry toxins into food chains. The foundation says what […]
# Die adjunkminister van Bosbou, Visserye en die Omgewing, Bernice Swarts, sal hierdie week die Oos-Kaapse Kleinskaalse Visserye-beraad by die Mthatha-stadion lei. Die beraad wil betrokkenheid tussen die regering en vissersgemeenskappe versterk, tegniese ondersteuning aan kleinskaalse visserykoöperasies bied, en mark- en infrastruktuuruitdagings aanspreek. Die program sal uitstallings en tegniese besprekings insluit wat deur sektorkenners gelei […]
