Deputy Minister for Water Affairs Rejoice Mabudafhasi said South Africans need to conserve water to avoid the country running dry by 2050.

She was speaking on Tuesday at a youth water summit held on Gauteng’s East Rand. The gathering aims to encourage young people to think about innovative ways to save water.

The deputy minister said researchers predict the country will run out of water in 38 years time, but said government was putting initiatives in place to ensure that did not happen.

Such initiatives include water harvesting and recycling.

Mabudafhasi said all industries need to support government’s initiative to ensure its goal is a successful one.
