Final Days

Boyd and I had an opportunity to visit a few factories to understand how water is consumed.  Commercial businesses such as breweries or car manufacturers are some of the biggest consumers of water.  We went to a factory that makes cardboard paper from recycled paper.  It is amazing how much water is needed to make a roll of paper.  If the water input is halted for even an hour, the factory becomes completely unproductive.  We also visited a company which makes various snacks.  I don't know why being near potato based products makes me so happy  :-)

This brings us to the end of our field investigations.  After traveling to almost every corner of Tshwane, interviewing over 50 people, making 20 field visits and combing through thousands of pages of data and documentation, it's time to formulate our recommendations.  We see the Executive Mayor for the final readout on Wedn.  The next 48 hours will be intense...
