Knowing how water doesn’t last forever, Cape Town is planning new desalination plants and treating wastewater to diversify its future supply and reduce reliance on dams.
Water officials of Cape Town are asking residents to still make water-wise decisions despite our dams flourishing at more than 90% full.

At the turn of the year, the idea of a Western Cape dam overflowing seemed pretty far-fetched. No wonder people are so stoked with this footage.
