'Day Zero' water crisis looms on South Africa's eastern cape by Ryan Lenora Brown June 19, 2022 at 6:00 a.m. EDT JOHANNESBURG-Activists in Gqeberha have long warned of "day zero" the moment when the taps in this South African coastal city will run dry. Recurring droughts in the region - which experts say are almost certainly exacerbated by climate change - combined with decaying infrastructure and poor maintenance, have led to repeated water outages. Nelana, whose only work is a part-time job as a gardener for the municipality, has to buy bottled water. "It's expensive for me," she said. City officials have urged all residents to limit their daily consumption to 50 liters - roughly four toilet flushes. Doing so, they say, will give local government enough time to build infrastructure to re-route water from a still-functional dam. Similar water-saving measures helped Cape Town avert catastrophe in 2018. Source: https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2022/06/19/south- Finis
