3. ENVIRONMENT AND ECOLOGY
I attended part of the conference of the Southern African Faith
Communities'
Environment Institute (SAFCEI) earlier this week, and am putting up some
re****ts of it on the SAFCEI blog at:
http://safecei.blogspot.com
One very interesting contribution was from Valli Moosa, former Minister of
Environmental Affairs, and now chairman of the board of Eskom, South
Africa's
main electricity provider, which has been in the news recently because of
the
power cuts being applied as Eskom's generating capacity has failed to meet
demand. He said that Eskom is the biggest producer of greenhouse gases in
the
world.
He also said that there would not be a power crisis if the big aluminium
smelters closed down. See:
