Fund the informal recyclers-they are doing a great job for our environment.
People must get paid for returning glass bottles and drink cans.
Start today!
The new ministers about to find out that government is like a super oil tanker, not easy to turn around
That is why the DA ministers have asked us to give them time to fix the country because things can't be fixed overnight.
Please do something to start a drive to stop litter and clean up litter, it would benefit tourism too. I pick up daily on my walks but there are very limited bins to put thing in. Each play park should have bin.
Please fix the Provincial Parks! KZN, LIMPOPO, NORTH WEST, MPHUMALANGA etc. These Provincial Parks and Nature Reserves are an absolute mess! Please move Pilanesberg from NW PARKS to SANPARKS!
The Tourism will boom if we look after our best assets!
To the Minister and his Deputies. The Fishing Communities is most Vulnerable and have to look after.
Forget about the climate nonsense and focus on developing the country. Green energy do cost money and is not that green at all. Use the resources you have and transition slowly. Let the private sector do that. Economics will dictate the pace and legitimacy of the technology.
Strangely, economics takes into account a broad number of factors of which health and environment are also included.
That’s what he said. As much as we must move across we must do it at a pace we can work with. We are not Europe and don’t have unlimited capital
The Minister have to meet with fishing communities and or its leader, especially those who served on "Consultive Advisory Forum " as observers and not real decision makers or part of those.
Thank you Minister
So glad he mentioned the fishing communities & quotas. Look after the communities that look after the environment! Great comment as well about the informal recyclers!
The more things change, the more nothing changes. Felt like I was listening to an ANC minister. He sounded more like an analyst than a minister.
You cannot generate base load with renewables. You cannot abandon coal or nuclear unless you want to become nomadic society. You will see negative economic growth until you switch to coal or nuclear. It's a very unfortunate reality.
Focus on cleanliness and help the energy sector for green energy. Put in litter laws. Fines for littering. Adopt Rwanda's day of picking litter.
Global warming ne... We must be in Europe
Is this Mr of energy or environmental affairs
Green energy does not harm the environment!!
@@tonitappous2422 It does dude
Ask Mr ex Eskom CEO
A lot of talk but nothing said around environment may be its me I am not hearing this guy want to see him in action sounds like Mr of jobs , economy and policy
The St. Helena Bay Fishing Community Forum want to recommend that the Minister first clean his Department from Officials who took kickbacks
You can't run a stable grid with renewables. All good for off grid systems like individual houses but definitely not suitable for big grid production. Who have you promised to do things for? Who are these funders?
After 30 years some people are not talking about [Apartheid racism and colour]. The people are now talking about solutions.
❤❤
Um um um etc etc etc…Dion needs some media training
oooee goodness help us. Eskom under Andre faltered because of his green boots
It was because he was being sabotaged , he came out while he was ECO saying he was sabotaged.
kwatsha pha
Heavily burning coal for at least another decade 😬. Where I live we no longer burn coal for power. In 2015 we were 65% coal power. It cost the government nothing to transition because power generation is private. Government just gave them a deadline of 2030 and they did it way earlier.
Where do you live?
@@francoismalan16 Alberta, Canada. Utilities are regulated by the province here. We still burn a lot of natural gas though because the existing coal plants were converted to natural gas.
