[I just love this. This country is in a dire emergency relating to electricity. The scale of the collapse is insane. So a simplistic solution is to build coal powered electricity generating plants. And now all these environmentalists are going to sue them! I love this. I love the stupidity of Liberalism and Communism all coming together. Jan]
South Africa’s energy regulator and energy minister have been sued by environmental activists over national plans to allow the construction of new coal-fired power plants.
Plans for the construction of 1,500 megawatts of coal-fired generation capacity are included in the 2019 Integrated Resource Plan for Electricity and a ministerial determination passed on Sept. 25 last year.
“New coal-fired power flies in the face of our constitutional right to an environment not harmful to health and wellbeing, not only for the present generations but for future ones too,” Nicole Loser, Programme Head: Pollution and Climate Change at the Centre for Environmental Rights, a legal group representing the activists, said in a statement on Wednesday.
South Africa relies on coal for more than 80% of its power and is the world’s 12th-biggest source of greenhouse gases.
The CER is representing groundWork, Vukani Environmental Justice Movement in Action and the African Climate Alliance.
The action was taken after Energy Minister Gwede Mantashe failed to respond to a Sept. 17 letter of demand, the CER said.
Earlier this month Mantashe said that securing the right to use coal for new power plants was worth a court battle.

Wie is ons? Boere of Afrikaners? Antwoord van Dr Mike Du Toit
Ek het iemand gehad wat aan my geskryf het oor die onderwerp van Boere teenoor Afrikaners. Ek het besluit om Dr. Mike Du Toit te nader, wat die leier van die Boeremag was en ‘n professionele akademikus is wat baie goed ingelig is oor ons geskiedenis, om hierdie vraag te beantwoord. Dr. Du Toit weet nie net van ons geskiedenis in Suid-Afrika nie, maar ook van ons geskiedenis in Europa. Hier is sy antwoord.
