Going green in South Africa's industrial heartland
Gauteng is South Africa's most densely populated province. It is South
Africa's industrial heartland - with a history of environmental damage
-
The Gauteng Government, through the Department of Agriculture, Environment,
Conservation and Land Affairs (DACEL), is fast-tracking the province
on a path towards sustainable development.
The Cleaner Technology and Remediation Fund
Helps industries and local government find technologies that can help
clean up environmental damage and produce goods in a more sustainable
way.
Clean fuel technology
The Gauteng Government has established a project to investigate
clean fuel technology for its transport fleet. Approximately 150 cars
will be converted to clean fuel technology by December 2002.
Gauteng air quality management strategy
Six air quality monitoring stations will be set up across the
province to address the need for a comprehensive air quality management
strategy for Gauteng.
Gauteng Open Space System (GOSP)
Mining has had significant environmental, public health and land use
impact on Gauteng. To promote remediation, a Gauteng Mine Pollution
Forum was established. To aid decision-making, the forum uses the Gauteng
Open Space System, a GIS (Geographical Information System) based spatial
decision support tool. The GOSP's data highlights areas of environmental
concern, allowing decision-makers to make predictive decisions before
any negative impacts take place, thus affording greater protection
to the environment.
