SUMMARY:National River Clean-up Day
DESCRIPTION:Rivers are the arteries that carry water and life to areas all around the world. Not only do they sustain life\, they also play a very important part in the water cycle and act as drainage channels for surface water. Unfortunately\, they additionally transport litter that has been carelessly discarded many kilometres upstream down to the sea and into the marine environment. \nDid you know that South Africa has ten major rivers that cross the length and breadth of South Africa? \n\nThe mighty Orange River in the Northern Cape/Free State)\,\nLimpopo River (Limpopo)\,\nVaal River (Free State\, Mpumalanga\, Gauteng\, Northern Cape)\,\nTugela River (KwaZulu-Natal)\,\nOlifants River (Limpopo /Mpumalanga)\,\nGamtoos River (Eastern Cape)\,\nGreat Kei River (Western Cape)\,\nKomati River (Mpumalanga)\,\nGreat Fish River (Eastern Cape) and\nMolopo River (North-West)
