    There's a water crisis in Cape Town. Travelers should be prepared (and can help). http://nyti.ms/2zEi4W5 pic.twitter.com/HxjMgXfmx0

        That's all well and good however we are not addressing the real problem --- globally majority of the water distribution system is antiquated and a significant amount of water leaks into the ground before getting to its intended destination. #FIXINFRASTRUCTURE

        Appealing to residents and tourists' conscience is one thing. Surely now is the time for #drought stricken areas to plan for the future and look for alternatives such as Veragon's #airtowater technology?

        1. Water is provided by the National Government, municipalities just purify it 2. The DA cannot control the weather 3. Still better than the rest of the country

        You obviously don't even begin to understand the severity of the issue we are facing. I'd rather let it mellow than flush away 10 litres of good drinking water for a pee.
