  • VIEWPOINT-Are Cattle Really the Ozone Destroyers?

    In an era of finger-pointing at every industry for planetary woes, cattle farming has become public enemy number one—not just for climate change, but for supposedly shredding the ozone layer with every burp and belch.

  • South Africa has been severely affected by large-scale corruption scandals for many years. Much of this corruption is linked to the ANC’s policy of cadre deployment, in which loyal party members are often placed in key government positions and state-owned enterprises, even if they lack the necessary skills or experience.
  • Why Healthy Soil is a Big Deal -Earthworms aerate soil, making it easier for roots, water, and air to penetrate. Just 1 acre of healthy land can support up to 1 million worms, processing 10 tons of soil a year! Without worms, soil becomes compacted, nutrient-poor, and drought-prone. A healthy underground network = a thriving garden above.
