FIGURE 2.6: DEFORESTATION AND ITS IMPACT ON RIVER MANAGEMENT
GOING, GOING, GONE! The current rate of deforestation worldwide is of great concern. Currently 12 million hectares of forests are cleared annually – an area 1,3 times the size of KwaZulu-Natal! Almost all of the deforestation occurs in the moist forests and open woodlands of the tropics. At this rate all moist tropical forests could be lost by the year 2050, except for isolated areas in Amazonia, the Zaire basin, as well as a few protected areas within reserves and parks. Some countries, such as Ivory Coast, Nigeria, Costa Rica and Sri Lanka are likely to lose all their tropical forests by the year 2030 if no conservation steps are taken. DID YOU KNOW?

WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO DISRUPT SOUTH AFRICA'S PUBLIC TAXI INDUSTRY? By Lebogang Tsele, 24 May 2017 The South African public taxi industry is reported to serve 15 million commuters per day. The multi-billion rand minibus taxi industry is still largely unregulated and has challenges, such as unlicensed vehicles, violence and the safety of commuters.

FIGURE 4.5: PWV/GAUTENG INDUSTRIAL REGION
GAUTENG TO REMAIN DOMINANT IN SA ECONOMY UNTIL 2017 By Leandi Kolver Gauteng continued to dominate the South African economy, contributing nearly 35% to the national gross domestic product, until at least 2017. It is noted that Gauteng's provincial economy was 75% and was made up of tertiary sector industries, including trade, transport, finance and community services. The province was also regarded as the natural destination for international investors wishing to establish a springboard into Africa.
