The Persistent Red Dust of Saldanha Bay: Balancing Progress and Preservation

by Kagiso Petersen
October 4, 2024

Saldanha Bay is a beautiful place, but it’s covered in a troubling red dust that comes from the nearby Transnet Port Terminal, where iron ore is shipped out. This dust, despite efforts to control it, is making life hard for local residents, who are frustrated by the constant mess it creates in their homes. A local group called the Red Dust Action Group is fighting for cleaner air and better living conditions, highlighting the struggle between industry and community health. While the port helps the economy grow, the people of Saldanha Bay hope for a future where both progress and the environment can thrive together.
