'Stubborn' Capetonians still using too much water
25 July 2017
Cape Town – Far too many Capetonians are being stubborn and still not doing enough to save water, the City of Cape Town said on Monday.
Water consumption increased to an average of 643 million litres per day last week, compared to 613 million litres per day in the previous week.
“The fact that we are still 143 million litres over our 500 million litres per day target means that those who are not reducing consumption are playing with everyone’s future in Cape Town,” the city said in a statement.
“Failure to reduce consumption spells disaster for everyone.”
