Op die platteland het die boere ook as gevolg van die verkiesing nuwe uitdagings om te hanteer. Skielik wil al wat politieke party is, toegang hê tot plase om stemwerwing by die plaasarbeiders te doen. TLU SA het vinnig en pro-aktief opgetree en riglyne in hierdie verband aan sy lede deurgegee oor hoe om dergelike situasies te hanteer. Immers, hoe sal ‘n boer kan onderskei of die persoon wat toegang tot die plaas soek, werklik ‘n bona fide stemwerwer van ‘n politieke party is? Georganiseerde landbou het al vir jare ‘n Plaasbesoek Protokol met staatsdepartemente bereik, wat beteken dat niemand net ‘n plaas kan betree sonder vooraf afspraak met die boer nie, en wanneer so ‘n afspraak wel gemaak word, moet die besoekers hulle identiteit, volmag of aanstelling sertifikaat openbaar.
Die inflasiekoers wat middelklas- en meer welvarende verbruikers beleef wanneer hulle gaan kosinkopies doen, is laer as dít wat arm huishoudings beleef.Dit beteken effektiewelik dat arm gesinne die gordel selfs stywer moet intrek en harder moet soek na winskopies elke maand. Die Pietermaritzburg Economic Justice and Dignity Group (PMBEJD), wat pryse in arm woonbuurte meet, het ’n inflasiekoers van 6,2% aangeteken op die 44 basiese kossoorte. As net dié produkte gemeet word wat arm gesinne eerste koop, was die inflasiekoers ook 4,5%. Dié mandjie van 17 produkte sluit egter eiers, melk, alle rooivleis, vrugte en die meeste soorte groente uit, met die uitsondering van uie en aartappels.
A new report shows South Africa's greenhouse gas emissions - which cause climate change - have peaked, but more work lies ahead to meet the 2030 target range, said the Presidential Climate Commission. Minister of Forestry, Fisheries and Environment Barbara Creecy this week published the draft of the ninth Greenhouse Gas Inventory for public comment. The inventory covers the period 2000 to 2022, and estimates the current emissions levels and trends in the country. South Africa has also made commitments to limit emissions to a certain range - known as the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC). South Africa's NDC for 2025 is a range between 398 and 510 megatons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MtCO2e) and 350-420 MtCO2e by 2030.
As countries around the world invest millions in vaccinations to curb the spread of bird flu, the South African government remains unyielding in its policy to refuse compensation to farmers – and it’s a policy that’s resulting in the spread of the disease.That’s the view of FairPlay founder Francois Baird who has called on the government to re-evaluate its compensation policy and provide financial support to poultry farmers who abided by the law and culled their chickens according to state directives during bird flu outbreaks.
