Day Zero : What will happen to us

[Hamish McPanji]

Will it be illegal for me to sell you ones tap water from JHB?

I think we need to pull a hose to CT. Get your bakkie ready. We won't even need a pump, I checked a map, it's downhill

I mentioned this in a previous thread but I see most people are still not talking about it. Everyone is worried about their 25l of water for the day, but what about food manufacturers. Most food manufacturers are in industrial areas which are usually close to residential areas. When Day Zero hits what happens to these food manufacturers? Will all of them shut down, and if they do what does that mean for those people and for the economy?

It is quite clear, its just not dawned on everyone it seems.

There will be no water. There will no manufacturing, there will be sewage build up, there will be disease and death. Not trying to be funny, its gonna be really bad like, like dark ages bad. If you dont have to live there, then dont

This sorta thing will lead to new technologies to desalinate seawater

Not that I am dissing the intelligence of our countrymen but I think the people who are capable of doing that has already left.

Pffft, we'll just import what we need i.e. standard ANC bull**** response..

Is a water store available at your nearest mosque ?

Large water tanker with trailer currently unloading at Panorama mosque opposite Pick ‘n Pay - who knows whether anybody can come and fetch ?

This thread is almost dormant, but for those of use with 'extreme pressure reduction' Day Zero has already arrived in January!? See my other thread for details...

Flip I feel for you all in CT. We had a few days last year without water. What a nightmare.
