Cutting carbon emissionsNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

Exhaust fumes, bright lights and thehumof air conditioning units are all part ofa bustling city centre.

But they are adding to the around 900 000tonnes of carbon dioxide produced by theCape Town CBD per year.

In 2012, the CBD produced 881 000 tonnesand consumed 7 100 terajoules of energy, ac-cording to the Cape Town Central City Im-provement District (CCID)’s report on thestate of the central city.

This is the equivalent to the power drawnby over four quadrillion LED light bulbs.

If unchecked, energy usage in 2030 willgrow to 12 600 terajoules, the report projects.

Reducing this carbon footprint has be-come the focus of a strategy the Cape TownPartnership, a non-profit organisationwhich liaises between different role-playersto bring about transformation in the city.

The strategy focuses on two main aspects:collecting research data and implementingsolutions to reduce carbon emissions.

Cape Town Partnership spokespersonSkye Grove says having data allows the or-ganisation to better understand the emis-sions on a small neighbourhood scale andmake informed policy and action decisions.

“The low-carbon central city strategy isbased around policy and action – connectinggood planning with practical improvementsfor a more environmentally friendly and re-silient central city,” she says.

The strategy has concentrated on raisingawareness since inception last year, Grovesays. “Phase one, which was the researchand recommendations phase, was all aboutgetting the data and communicating it to awider audience,” she says.

This has seen numerous people accessinginfographics and information released bythe organisation.

The partnership is currently fundraisingto implement the second phase of the strate-gy.

Thisphasewill see trials of someof thepol-icy recommendations, both on the streetsand in buildings, Grove explains.

Change is, however, already underway.Residents and organisations fromall sides

are already starting to do things that encour-age a lower-carbon way of living and work-

ing in the city, Grove says.The City of Cape Town recently installed

800 sodiumvapour street lights formore effi-cient lighting and is in the process of rollingout new financial incentives and packagesto make solar water heating and electricitygeneration a reality for central city resi-dents.

“Businesses are slowly starting to adoptcarpooling incentives and both city and pro-vincial governments are installing metersin their buildings to monitor their energyconsumption,” Grove says.

Increased MyCiTi bus services have alsogiven public transport a boost, Grove says,which is vital in reducing carbon emissions.

Although cars account for 54% of passen-ger kilometres created by commuters to theCBD, they account for over 87% of all thetransport energy to and in the CBD.

“We need more people to get out of theircars,” she says.

“Think about what it would be like if com-panies banded together to launch an electricbike share system, helping employees andclients move around sustainably from one

building to another. So many fewer carswould be on the road.”

This would mean less time spent drivingaround looking for parking or in traffic,Grove says.

“The central city is one part of a largercity, small in geography but vital in termsof use,” she adds.

“By working together to lower our carbonfootprint, we can ensure that we’re goingfurther to reduce the entire metro-region’sfootprint, and helping to mitigate for the in-creased effects of climate change.”

Traffic in the CBD is upping the carbon footprint of the central city. This is just one of the points raised in the Cape Town Partnership’sstrategy to lower carbon emissions.PHOTO: NICOLE MCCAIN

Fight for right to workASTRID FEBRUARIE

@FebAstrid

A woman with a physical disability hasnot given up her own fight to ensurepeople living with disabilities have a

right to decent employment.Undere Deglon, CEO of Disability Work-

shop Development Enterprise (DWDE),works closely with a number of companies inthe private sector that are committed to em-ploying people with disabilities.

The Institute for Promotion of DisabledManpower, in partnership with WesternCape Network on Disability, held a summitat the Cape Town International Conven-tion Centre (CTICC) on Friday 13 Februa-ry.

Sinawe Pezi, deputy CEO of DWDE, ex-plained through education, empowermentand networking opportunities between em-ployers and people with disabilities, the or-ganisation’s Employment Support Servi-ces makes a significant contribution to-wards enriching lives, building aninclusive society and inspiring young peo-ple on their way towards finding opportu-nities for work.

The DWDE launched the EmploymentSupport Services in 2013 across South Afri-ca with an associated target employment of1200 people with disabilities in the open la-bour market.

Pezi says the 2% employment campaignis a partnership between DWDE, theJobs Fund, administered by the Develop-ment Bank of Southern Africa and the Unit-ed Nations Special Rapporteur on Disabili-ty. “We seek to create awareness amongemployers about the employability of peo-ple with disabilities and to give people withdisabilities exposure to employment op-

portunities and guide them in the right ca-reer choices,” she says.

During the Disability Employment Sum-mit, the organisation presented an over-view of an employment creation campaign.

It was revealed at the summit that the pri-vate sector is well on its way to meeting the2% quota set out by government, while someare exceeding expectation.

Pezi says many South Africans with disa-bilities desperately require an increase injob creation initiatives to overcome the un-employment problem.

“Unemployment is the root cause of pover-ty and inequality, and can be a contributingfactor to substance abuse, increased levelsof crime and social exclusion,” she says.

Pezi says according to Statistics South Af-rica Census 2011, there are just over two mil-lion (7.54%) people with disabilities, exclud-ing certain groups and children youngerthan five, compared to people without disa-bilities which total just over 35 million(92.46%). “On the other hand, the Commis-sion for Employment Equity Annual Report2013/2014, reporting on employment equityprogress among designated employers, not-ed after 15 years there are only about 50 000(0.9%) people with disabilities in employ-ment,” she says.

OCEAN VIEW DRIVE

Putting brakes on speedingNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

After many years of battling to slow traf-fic on Ocean View Drive, speeding mo-torists will soon come to a stop.

Traffic calming measures for the streethave been approved and will see stop signsinstalled at the intersections of Ben Nevisand Springbok roads, ward councillor Jac-ques Weber says.“The two intersections are oftenused to en-

ter OceanViewDrive and have an extremelybad line of sight,” he says.“The two intersections inquestionare sim-

ilar to ‘blind corners’ and accidents have oc-curred while trying to enter the road.”Thismeans vehicles entering from Spring-

bok or Ben Nevis roads have to edge ontoOcean View Drive, and stand the risk of col-liding with oncoming traffic, he explains.In addition, the traffic travelling on Ocean

View Drive tends to move faster than is ap-propriate for a residential road, says GreenPoint Ratepayers’ Association spokespersonLuke Stevens.

“These have become quite scary and dan-gerous intersections. We hope that the newstop signs will also act as traffic calmingmeasures,” he says.Weber says although there are constant re-

ports of speeding along this route, investiga-tions by traffic officers tell a different story.“We have conducted speed enforcement

[and] the stats showadifferent picture. Theydo not indicate constant speeding and thenumber of offences captured are low,” hesays.However, he hopes the stop streets will

slow any speedsters who do venture onto theroad.“The stop signs will also act as a traffic

calmingmeasure for thosemotorists who be-lieveOceanViewDrive is their personal racetrack,” he says.“Operations will also be held on this

stretch to ensure motorists comply withspeed limits and stop signs,” concludesWebber.The installation of the signs should be com-

pleted within the next few weeks, he esti-mates.

Water shortageCape Town’s fresh water supply is under

major threat and according to the De-partment of Water and Sanitation most

analysts predict South Africa’s water de-mand will outstrip its supply by 2025.

Already the demand for water has over-taken supply in 60% of South Africa’s watermanagement systems.

However, according to water scientists,changing our everyday behaviour can helpto alleviate the pressure put on our reservesdue to climate change, pollution and outdat-ed infrastructure.

During National Water Week, Monday 16to Sunday 22 March, theWatershed Festivalaimed to restore the public’s appreciation ofclean and accessible drinking water, re-minding them of its worth, scarcity and theabsence of a substitute.

The festival saw free educational eventsheld across the city, including an outdoorscreening of two award-winning documen-tary feature films depicting water in all its

beauty at Green Point Urban Park.TheWatershed Festival looks to create in-

creased awareness of the Cape and SouthAf-rica’s water crisis. With dams currently at69% capacity, all it will take to literally runon empty is a few consecutive winters withless than expected rainfall thanks to climatechange.

And 40% of our waste water treatment fa-cilities are in a critical state and in need ofan upgrade, having outlived their 30-yearlifespan by a decade or so.

South Africa loses 37% of clean, drinkablewater through leaking pipes and drippingtaps every year, while increasing pollutiondue to rapidly expanding urban areas and il-legal dumping add to the crisis.V Win! Win! Win! Five readers stand a chance towin a Woolworth’s hamper of WLAB washing

detergents and laundry liquids , which have beenscientifically formulated for improved performanceand are phosphate free . Each hamper is worthR200. Go to www.peoplespost.co.za to enter.

As part oftheWatershedFestival,freeeducationalevents,such asdocumen-taryscreenings,took placeacross thecity.

Despite the chilly air, the event offeredJerome Cornelius and Wendyl Martin insightinto the dilemma over water.

Families were treated to documentariesdepicting the beauty of water.

WARD DEMARCATIONS

Change afootNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

A new draft proposal of wards for thenext election has been put forward.This proposal sees Green Point in-

cluded in a new ward with Mouille Pointand the Waterfront, which stretches toWoodstock.In preparation of local government elec-

tions, the national Municipal DemarcationBoard (MDB) has released proposed bound-aries for Cape Town, whichwill see the cre-ation of five new wards and the alterationto a number of current wards.The board is mandated to demarcate

ward boundaries in all municipalities thatare divided into wards.The demarcations are currently up for

public comment through the City of CapeTown, as the City has been invited to a con-sultative ward demarcation meeting withthe board and is inviting public contribu-tions to present to the board.The first proposal sawMouille Point and

the Waterfront incorporated into a newward with the CBD, Zonnebloem, Wood-stock and Paarden Eiland. Green Point wasincorporated into Ward 77, which will alsocovers Bo-Kaap, Gardens, Vredehoek andOranjezicht (“Uncertainty over ‘new’wards”, People’s Post, 10 February).Chairperson of the Good Hope Subcoun-

cil Demetri Qually says due to the increasein the number of voters, the number ofwards in Cape Town will increase from 111to 116 for the 2016 elections.“As part of the delimitation process, the

board issued a preliminary draft proposalfor new ward boundaries, including a newWard 115, and invited the City and other in-terested parties to make comment and sub-mit alternative proposals,” he says.

The City drafted an alternative draft pro-posal and invited public comment thereon.The City’s draft proposal for Ward 115

split Green Point and Mouille Point intoseparate wards, explains Qually.However, after presentations fromGreen

Point,Mouille Point andCityBowl ratepay-ers’ associations, a new proposal has beenput forward.Green Point Ratepayers’ Association

spokespersonLuke Stevens says the associ-ations have banded together to improve theinitial ward demarcation proposal.“We are very pleased to observe that the

City has been responsive: they altered theirinitial proposal a few days ago. Green Pointhas nowbeenmoved intoWard 115 togetherwith Mouille Point and the common. Thiswas an absolute necessity,” he says.The amended proposal was submitted at

the MDB meeting last week.On the City Bowl side, Vredehoek has

been reunited with the rest of its neigh-bourhood in Ward 77.But there are still some changes necessa-

ry, says Stevens.“A legacy voting district boundary has

caused a loop of De Waterkant to remainacross the road in Ward 77. Our first prizewould be for thewhole of DeWaterkant andalso of Bo-Kaap to be included with us in115 as we have very many common issuesto address,” he says.While the comment period on the City’s

proposal has lapsed, furtherward demarca-tion proposalsmay be submitted directly tothe board.V To comment, visit www.demarcation.org.za.

FIRES

Allergy alert raisedIf you are wondering why your allergy isgetting worse, it is most probably be-cause of the recent fires in the area.According to a leading supplier of allergy

medication, nasal allergies can be muchworse, especially among those living inMuizenberg, Hout Bay, Noordhoek andStellenbosch where blazes were the mostrampant.Allergy sufferers are being warned to

stay indoors and limit exercise tominimisethe risk of their allergies being triggered bythe high levels of particulate matter in thesmoky air.Mariska van Aswegen, spokesperson for

the company, says veld fires can intensifyallergy symptoms by up to 11%.“Even if you can’t see or smell the smoke

from the fires, the body may still respondto particulate matter, which is made up ofminuscule particles or droplets of pollutionin the air that are inhaled,” she says.Van Aswegen says this week’s fires may

also play a part in increasing hospital traf-fic by putting more allergens in the air.“Any exposure to any kind of smoke tothose with underlying allergy conditionscan cause problems and make them moresusceptible to respiratory infections.

“Smoke is an environmental allergenthat contains particles which can irritatethe lungs, throat and eyes, triggering symp-toms like difficulty with breathing normal-ly; wheezing; shortness of breath; runnynose, itching, nasal congestionandobstruc-tion of breathing and coughing (with orwithout mucous).“The most commonly affected people are

allergy sufferers, the very young – whoselungs are still developing – and the very old– whose lungs may be compromised.”Van Aswegen offers the following steps

allergy sufferers can take to minimise theeffects of the fires on their health:

. Taking your medications as pre-scribed, including antihistamines;

. Staying indoors with your windowsclosed as much as possible;

. Limiting exercise outdoors – schoolchildren who suffer from allergies mayhave to cut back on sports training whenfires are ablaze and the high winds carryparticulate matter far and wide;

. Do not smoke, light candles or vacuumas these activities will increase the particu-lar matter count in your home;

. Wash your hair, clothes and pets afterbeing outside.

The Rhodes debateI have visited the Rhodes memorial onseveral occasions and have taken manyof my guests to view the beauty of CapeTown in all it splendour on warmwindless days.

The views were always breathtaking. Inever for once bothered about thehistory of Cecil John Rhodes until therecent protest by the students of UCTover his statue.

What was very worrying, was theracially divisive nature of the protestsand the extremely acerbic tone of thedebates. I was prompted to research theman’s history to make sense of thisdivisive debate.

I came across an excellent articlewritten by Mzubisi Qobo, the pastpresident of the student representativecouncil in 1996. The article appeared inBusiness Day on Friday 20 March.

According to Qobo, Cecil J Rhodeswas infamously known for his “EveryMaster Wallop-his Nigger Bill”, whichgave white farmers the right to flogtheir black workers.

He strongly opposed the idea of givingblacks the right to “own land” in theirown country. He felt that they should be

kept in sub-human conditions in nativereserves.

Qobo further states that Rhodes’purported generosity to donate land forUCT and his residence for future primeministers was done so with plunderedmoney and to bribe the future not tojudge him harshly for his ugly past.

I am sure many beneficiaries of theRhodes scholarship back in the early’50s and ’60s, who are his staunchsupporters and responsible for all thevitriol in the media against the protest-ers, were totally ignorant of the fact thatRhodes was an absolute racist.

With the Rhodes ugly racist back-ground, there should be no doubt thathis statue has absolutely no place in areputable university like the UCT oftoday. Like Hitler’s and other dictators’statues, Rhodes’ statue should be kept ina museum to remind civilised peoplethat the evil of one’s past will always beremembered by history.

Rhodes’ statue occupies a space thatcould and should be occupied by astatue of a person that could make theuniversity, its students and fellowCapetonians extremely proud of.

That person is Archbishop EmeritusDesmond Tutu, a world renowned figure,who so fearlessly devoted so much of hislife for the liberation of this countryfrom the terrible shackles of apartheid.This man is hugely responsible forprevailing upon black South Africans torenounce violence and forgive theiroppressor to build a rainbow nation.

It was so heartening to hear Afrikaansspeakers in Ventersdorp welcoming theidea of reburying the remains of the lateJB Marks, the struggle leader, who diedin Moscow in 1972, in Ventersdorp tobring about racial harmony in a townthat was torn apart by the Terreblanche.

If the residents of Ventersdorp can doit, then it shouldn’t be too hard for theliberal-minded Capetonians of all racesto unite and replace the bad with thegood.

In a free and democratic country suchas ours, centres of learning should havestatues and monuments of people thatcan inspire their pupils to be goodcitizens and not have statues of racistslike Rhodes, who treated black peoplewith absolute disdain.

UCT vice-chancellor Max Price will beremembered well by history for takingthe correct decision to remove thishurtful reminder of our sad past.

DR ELLAPEN RAPITIMitchell’s Plain

Poverty stricken and living in an informal settlement,thousands of shackdwellers are looking for a wayto raise their children in better conditions.

Topping the priority list is a home built with brickswhich does not flood every winter.

Electricity without the dangers of an illegal connectionis a close second.

Add to that clean running water which does not haveto be carried in a bucket from a tap several meters away.

But often, the City of Cape Town’s alternatives givento informal settlement dwellers come at far too high aprice – a move from Maitland to Mfuleni or from the CapeTown CBD to Strandfontein.

Such moves will make it near impossible for these low-income groups to keep their jobs or visit their families.

And when informal settlement dwellers raise these is-sues, they are often met with the immovable response:“Take it or leave it.”

But the City is more than capable of bending over back-wards for those they feel deserve it.

Daily council makes concessions to big developers, al-lowing them to build too close to the road or neighbouringboundary walls.

These concessions see buildings springing up too highon the mountain or at the expense of heritage fabric.

The recipients of such concessions are often corpora-tions worth millions, who give little back.

Are they really the ones council should be giving con-cessions to? Where is the pro-poor planning to comple-ment the City’s claims to pro-poor spending?

We need holistic solutions that cover all sectors of socie-ty, effective changes that reduce the income gap and hous-ing proposals that go hand-in-hand with a sense of digni-ty.

If council wants to give a developer a concession, let’ssee both of them hold out a helping hand first.

EDITORIAL COMMENT:

Hand up

Poem for firemenFor days on end the fire raged, andthe smoke hung thick and low,

The wind that fanned the flames tolife, made the fire fighting slow,

By night the fires were eerie, asthey danced in the dark night sky,

One’s heart felt truly broken, for theanimals that would die.

In the early hours of morning light,came a welcome sight and sound,

The familiar noise of the chopperblades, as they clattered round andround,

Running relays back and forth, withwater to douse the flame,

Brave and fearless and against allodds, they battled fatigue and pain.

On the ground the winds grewstrong, but on the mountain we knew,

The up-draughts and the thermals,meant danger for pilot and crew,

Against the mountain they flew soclose, again and again they came,

Standing there helpless on theground, we could only pray for rain.

The fire fighters could hardly cope,but stayed focused on their quest

Back and forth as the flare-upscame, they never stopped to rest,

Brave and fearless they soldiered on,with cannons and with hose,

Never faltering or recoiling, nomatter how high the flames rose.

Heroes died and homes were de-stroyed, through this fire’s destructivehand,

The scenic beauty that we knew so

well, became a charred and barrenland,

The smell of smoke filled the air,and the haze stole the light of the sun,

But through it all our heroes stoodtall, making sure the battle was won.

So when it was over and time totake stock, we were trying to countthe cost,

But sadly we knew this could neverbe done, because there had been sucha loss,

In the pages of history the facts willreveal, how our heroes had won theday,

And through the drama and painthat prevailed, a nation had learned topray.

A teacher and a plumber from the South-ern Suburbs are making waves on theFlying Fish Beach Volleyball Series.

Antonio Rossouw (33) from Elfindale andDean Layters (22) from Ocean View, haveformed a beach volleyball partnership that

is taking on the big guns in the national Fly-ing Fish Beach Volleyball Series.

The second tournament in the series tookplace at the University of Cape Town (UCT)and Camps Bay over the past weekend.

On Friday after the first day’s round robinmatches, Rossouw and Layters had only lostone match and were second on the log, be-hind the first seeds and eventual winners ofthe tournament, Grant Goldschmidt andJerome Fredericks.

“I started playing indoor volleyball in 1999when I was still at school in Mitchell’sPlain,” says Rossouw, who is a teacher at StAnthony’s Roman Catholic Primary Schoolin Heathfield.

He is married to Tercia, a former volley-ball player and they have a daughter, Ju-liana (2).

“The indoor season is very short andwhensummer came, I hadno sport, so I progressedto beach volleyball,’ he says.

It is much the same for Layters, who is abachelor. “I also progressed from indoor vol-leyball to beach volleyball to keep playingthe sport all year round,” he says.

Rossouw stopped playing for some time,but when he decided to play again he metLayters at the University of the WesternCape (UWC) where they were both playingand decided to form a team for the FlyingFish Beach Volleyball Series.

“This (UCT) is only our second tourna-ment together as a team, but we are develop-ing our style of playing and want to stay to-gether for the entire series,” says Rossouw.

According to him, beach volleyball stillhas a long way to go in South Africa beforethe majority of players can become profes-sional and make a living out of it. “It is won-derful that Flying Fish sponsors this series,butweasplayers still hold a full-time joband

the only way we will be able to make a livingas players, is to get personal sponsorships,”says Rossouw.

Layters has his eye on the Olympics. “Iwould love to represent our country at theOlympicGames in thenot so distant future,”he says. “But it is going to take lots of hardwork.” Rossouw says training involves lots

of gym work and practise on the beach.“Dean and I regularly meet on the beach

where we practise our drills and do lots ofexercises andwealso go to gymoften toworkon our strength and do cardio-vascular exer-cises. It is hard work ... but we love it andhope to play for many years to come,” hesays.

The beach is their playground
