Rivers are more than just bodies of water. They are places of prayer, cleansing, healing, ceremony and tradition.

But what happens when the river we depend on for these practices is polluted with sewage, litter and other waste?

This is not a criticism of traditional or religious practices. It is a call to protect the places that make those practices possible.

We need traditional leaders, religious leaders, communities, municipalities and environmental organisations at the same table.

Our rivers must be clean enough for people to use them safely, respectfully and with dignity.

Protecting our rivers means protecting our people, our environment and our heritage.

Banele is a well-known recycler in Soweto, but today he’s much more than that.

He’s helping transform the very places where he once earned a living into clean, safe spaces, because illegal dumping is becoming a serious problem in our communities.

We recently had the privilege of collaborating with him on a community clean-up project. This is what real change looks like, people taking ownership and leading by example.

There are solutions to littering.

If you can’t find a bin, keep your rubbish with you until you get home or find one. It’s that simple.

How does this packaging get here?

A lack of bins?

But the bigger question is: Why was it thrown here in the first place?

Keeping South Africa clean starts with the choices we make every day.

Environmental education is one of the biggest challenges facing many of our communities.

During our recent clean-up in Soweto, we asked a young community member what he believes is at the root of South Africa’s litter problem. His answer was clear: many people simply don’t have access to environmental education or understand the long-term impact of littering on our communities and our planet.

Real change starts with awareness. When people understand the “why”, they’re more likely to change their behaviour.

At Clean South Africa Foundation, we’re committed to changing habits, changing mindsets, and building a cleaner South Africa through education, awareness and action.

🎥 Watch his perspective and let us know: Do you think environmental education is the missing piece?
