Rainfall across the country has historically been variable over time, season, and locations. This has been exacerbated due to the many influences of climate change across our country.

The groundswell of sustainable development is rapidly gaining pace with providers of capital and regulators increasingly emphasising the transition from carbon intensive resources.
Georgina Smit is Head of Technical at the Green Building Council of South Africa (GBCSA). She oversees certification and research-related products that drive the property sector to design, build and operate buildings in a more sustainable way.
