| Description | In Suid-Afrika, soos in baie ander lande, bereik die menslike bevolking tans vlakke wat mededinging om fundamentele lewensbehoeftes soos grond en water, onvermydelik maak. Gepaard met bevolkingsgroei gaan die absolute behoefte aan ekonomiese ontwikkeling en werkverskaffing wat op hulle beurt geweldige eise aan die omgewing en natuurlike hulpbronne stel. Die gevolg is al hoe groter klem in nuusmediaberigte oor sogenaamde konflikte tussen nywerheidsontwikkeling en sosiale behoeftes enersyds, en omgewings- en hulpbronbewaring andersyds. In South Africa, as in many other countries, human population growth is currently reaching levels which render competition for basic human needs such as land and water, inevitable. Concurrent to population growth is the absolute necessity for economic development and job opportunities which, in turn, make tremendous demands upon the environment and natural resource base. As a consequence ever greater emphasis is placed by the news media on apparent conflicts between industrial development and social needs on the one hand, and conservation of the environment and natural resources on the other. | |
