last week we spoke to Musa Chamane who is waste campaigner at Groundworks and Simon Mbatha, national coordinator of the Waste Pickers Association about a number of issues polluting our environment. The conversation was started by listeners pointing out the illegal dumping that was happening in their areas. So in doing a follow-up discussion on the subject with Chamane and Mbatha, they pointed the finger at both local government and the Department of Environmental Affairs. Let’s listen to a snippet of how the conversation went…..
