They need to be stopped. We should also not be allowing foreign companies to dam our rivers, destroy our water supplies, kill our wildlife, destroy our natural and fragile eco-systems. The environmental degradation is catastrophic and burning coal contributes to global warming. Alternative and renewable sources of power are now available. The government should be focusing on these alternative and renewable sources of power and drastically decreasing our dependence on Eskom. |

2025-12-31 07:46:03 +02:00 | Daria | No I do not | Water resource depletion and contamination | Yes I do | The destruction of the Greater Soutpansberg area by coal mining will not provide long term benefit to the south african population. In contrast it will only benefit a few highly connected south african politicians and the chinese goverment. The local landscape will be destroyed and the local water resources contaminated preventing the local population from sourcing water and any future sustainable ecotourism opportunities. The illegal mining happening must be stopped immediately as it gives the impression that South African laws can be ignored and legal process flouted. It is the duty of the goverment to protect the local population, their land and water resources from Chinese exploitation. |
