Abstract

Earth is confirmed to be the only planet in the entire known universe perfectly located and resourced to host earthly life as we know it.1 It is indeed a phenomenon to behold. South Africa, often referred to as the Rainbow Nation, certainly speaks to this phenomenon. The country is granted miraculous landmarks, tourist attractions, lush vegetation, platinum metals, gold,2 cultural diversity and beautiful citizens.3 Cape Town, the capital city of the Western Cape Province and also the legislative capital of South Africa,4 is in fact named the third greatest city on earth because of its, amongst other aspects, outstanding topography and geography.5 It is, however, incontestably and unfortunately so that with this said splendour, detriment also resides.
