Effects of Coal Mining in South Africa
Caption Description
The extent of South Africa's reliance on coal is clear to see. In the province of Mpumalanga the landscape is scarred with huge coal-fired power stations and vast open-cast mines, the surface of the countryside literally having been scraped away. The coal-mining process here can leave water supplies unusable for irrigation, for industry and for consumption by animals and humans.
