With recent heavy rains, Gauteng\u2019s water shortage seems to be a distant memory to most. But in reality, the province faces many water supply problems. \u00a0Experts suggest that \u00a0Gauteng will experience a serious water crisis by 2020. Why then are 2.1 billion litres of water from the Katse dam running into an already overfull Vaal System daily? Carte Blanche investigates.<\/p>\n

Lesedi Sekgolo is 16 years old and has Ewing\u2019s Sarcoma, a rare cancer that affects the bones,\u00a0while Arabella van Rooyen is just six years old with Nephroblastoma, a cancer of the kidneys.

Now after years of studying the recovery of his patients, US oncologist Dr Jerome Groopman, may finally have unlocked the answers.<\/p>\n

For 15 years, desperate Transnet pensioners have been calling for pension increases they could actually live on. \u00a0By 2013 it had culminated in the country\u2019s largest class action lawsuit, but five years later, the case is yet to be heard. Meanwhile, thousands of pensioners are living below the poverty line with some couples so destitute they\u2019re forced to take turns to eat. Despite protests, court cases and parliamentary recommendations, nothing has changed. Carte Blanche asks: why is nobody paying attention to the plight of these pensioners?<\/p>\n
