NASA used satellites to track air pollution around the world and the extremely high levels of air pollution in Kriel is mainly caused by humans. The government declared the region a “priority area” because of the environmental risk from air pollution there.

Rian van Heerden was shocked when he heard the news, he received a few calls from listeners stating that they are suffering while living there.

Rian and The Scenic Drive decided that they will have to visit Kriel in Mpumalanga to get a proper sense of what is actually happening.

Details about their visit will be announced during this month.
