Save Our Endangered Camel Thorn Trees

This petition was published by camelthorns on Apr 18, 2009

We, the undersigned, not being opposed to the nature of the development, but to the location thereof, call on the Thembelihle Municipality and the SA Department of Water Affairs and Forestry to:

1. Consider the long term environmental impact of a development on this location by honouring the SA Constitution and environmental protection measures enshrined in legislation to protect this sensitive ecosystem containing endangered species of Grey Camel Thorn Trees.

2. Implement the recommendations of the Environmental Impact Assessment agency (REDCO).

3. Head and act upon public opinion, objections and concerns to the proposed development.

4. Consider alternative locations which offer a lesser environmental impact.

5. Discontinue the planned development of the irrigation scheme on the current selected location and ensure the protection of the endangered Camel Thorn Trees.
