On Sunday 25 September 2022 an intrepid bunch of local environmental enthusiasts cleaned a portion of the Olifants River of rubbish to honour World Rivers Day. This same section had been cleaned a year ago and the most recent event saw a significant reduction in the amount of litter compared to the previous time. It is possible that the small contributions we are making to respect nature are making a difference. The plan is to make this a more regular outing, to cover more sections of the river (water-level permitting) and to measure and monitor the impact this has on the Lissataba section of the Olifants River.
