According to Kohler, South Africa is the world's 30th driest country. Because we don't get much rain, when it does rain, the water evaporates on the ground and returns to the air phase nearly rapidly. The fact that only 20% of South Arica's ground water can be exploited poses a hurdle, further limiting water supply. Every year, the demand for water grows, as more people demand more water.

According to Calma (2011), social justice entails striking a balance between our collective and individual responsibilities in order to contribute to a just society.

Environmental social justice, according to Rathzel (2018), is a sort of justice for people who have been "left out" during environmental disasters. For example, in South Africa, our air is becoming increasingly polluted as a result of the mining. As a result, environmental social justice exists to assist individuals who are affected by environmental situations.

The Wetland project aids in the purification of water, the provision of water, and the management of water flow in impoverished areas. This project also assisted in the creation of employment opportunities for at least 2000 people living in poverty. Making their lives a little less difficult.

South Africa's environmental situation is dire, and things are just getting worse. Almost all of our resources, such as coal for power generation and water, are depleted. As a result, we're compelled to employ more expensive methods to provide people with energy and water. This is inconvenient since many people in South Africa are poor and unable to make the necessary changes.
