Water and energy talk at Green Business Platform meeting
The next Green Business Platform meeting will be taking place on Friday March 6, 07:30 for 08:00 at Thaba Eco Hotel, Impala Road, Klipriviersberg Nature Reserve, Johannesburg.
The cost is R50 per person payable at the entrance – includes finger snacks.
The South African economy is based on two specific platforms, water and energy. Both of these are under pressure.
Speaker Dr Anthony Turton will explain the national hydraulic platform that is now under considerable strain. The overall water reticulation system is in fact a series of subsystems, each nested discreetly.
We are now seeing failure at sub-system level for a variety of reasons. These are manifesting as risk to business, already under strain for a range of other reasons. Larger corporations have the capacity to understand water as a strategic risk and develop internal mitigation strategies. SMME’s are different, with the executive management stretched to breaking point, dealing with other matters of survival.
This talk will assist executives in SMMEs in understanding the nature and scale of risk they are facing, enabling them to develop a viable mitigation strategy.
