1. According to Kohler (2016) South Africa is the 30th driest country in the world. Because we don't recieve a lot of rain, when it eventually rains the ground evaporates the water and it re-enters the atmospheric phase almost instantly. A challenge SA face is that only 20% of South Arica's ground water can be used, which limits the water availability even further. The need of water intensifies each year, with more people demanding more water.
According to Sarkodie and Adams (2020) many of South African's people can't afford electricity and are not easily accessible to a lot people. Only the "rich" people can afford electricity.
2. According to Calma (2011) social justice basically means to find a balance between our responsibilities as a society and our responsibilities as individuals to contribute to a just society.
3. According to Rathzel (2018) environmental social justice means that it is a type of justice for people who has been "left out" during environmental problems. For example in South Africa with all the mines, our air is getting polluted. So the environmental social justice is there to help those who suffers under the environmental conditions.
4. The wedland project helps to pure the water, provide water and to manage the water flow in poverty effective areas. This project also helped to provide job opportunities to at least 2000 people who suffers under poverty. Making their lives a little bit more easy.
5. The state of the environment in South Africa is very bad and sadly it is only getting worse. Almost all of our resources such as coals for electricity and water resources are finished. So we are forced to use other, more expensive ways to provide electricity and water to people. This is not convenient, because a lot of people in South Africa are poor and cannot afford to make this change.
