If you’ve ever needed a reason to store extra food and water, this just might be it. Cape Town, South Africa is on schedule to run out of water in less than 95 days, and when they do, the government will turn off the taps.
“There are only 95 days left before we reach Day Zero,” the City of Cape Town announced on January 15 in a statement. “Day Zero has moved a day closer this week to April 21, 2018. Day Zero is when the City will be forced to turn off most of the taps.”
The coastal South African city has been battling droughts for nearly three years, amounting to the worst one in their history. With little rain on the horizon, the city has now ordered its 3.7 million residents to drastically cut their water consumption, take short stop-start showers, not wash their cars, and flush toilets as little as possible. If they don’t, all of their taps could be shut off by the government in April.
The city doesn’t appear to have any plan in place for such a SHTF event. But if the government cannot find a solution to the problem, Capetonians will be forced into “bread lines” for water. As if that isn’t scary enough, city residents will have a limit of 5.5 gallons of water a day that will only be given to them at specific government outposts around the city.
Cape Town’s mayor Patricia de Lille tweeted: “I cannot stress it enough: all residents must save water and use less than 87 liters [19 gallons] per day… We must avoid Day Zero and saving water is the only way we can do this.” Not missing the opportunity to levy extra taxes on the populace, the city mayor has also impeded a “drought charge” in order to fund new water projects, such as constructing desalination plants.
The climate alarmists are out in full force too, quickly blaming the drought (natural occurrences throughout Earth’s history) on the junk science of “climate change.”
The earlier part of the drought in 2015 was largely blamed on the El Niño weather pattern, however, as the situation continues to worsen, experts are now pointing towards poor city management [government incompetence], a growing urban population, and – you guessed it – climate change. –IFLScience
Climate alarmists act like raising taxes in the name of global warming will somehow make the rain start falling. But preparing yourself for a situation such as this one requires storing your own water, and knowing how to properly filter... More and more, humans are having to prepare themselves for the government incompetence that makes horrible situations like this so much worse.
Off-grid living expert Scott Hunt said:
The key to beating a drought has always been storage. Water storage can make the difference between a harvest or crop failure, life or death. There are many methods to storing water. Digging reservoirs or ponds to collect the water when it does rain. Having buried cisterns will beat the effects of evaporation that accompany drought conditions. Using 55-gallon drums of treated water in your home can be a huge blessing when the tap runs dry or the source has been contaminated.
All of this can be done without the government, so you aren’t left waiting in line for your government rationed water.

It seems that the peasants are pissed off...
Just read your latest media release telling us that it is totally the users fault we are running out of water. Given that Cape Town ceases to exist if DZ arrives, you are also materially to blame. STOP BLAMING ONLY US AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!

So evidently using public funds towards building a now barely used and creatively named Cape Town Stadium - (oh and add in the the US $10 million in bribes to then-FIFA Vice President Jack Warner and to other FIFA Executive Committee members to ensure that ZA got the event) was more important than ensuring that water desalination plants were built and operational.
Don’t disagree that people must be forced to comply with restrictions. STRONGLY take issue with fact that ALL BUT ONE (the LEAST advanced) of your emergency water measures are BEHIND SCHEDULE - see pic from your own website! You have known about this for years! Not OK! pic.twitter.com/l9SVwDp0OG

DAY ZERO = 23 April - So will it be around this time that the ANC and the Economic Freedom Fighters use this as an excuse to start their violent purge of whites and pretty much anyone else who opposes them?
