Iceberg proposal snowballs into reality | CapeTown ETC

A few months ago, the idea of towing an iceberg to help Cape Town’s water crisis would have been called ludicrous. Now, government has said they will look into the proposal to bolster the city’s critical water supply, provided they receive a detailed plan of the project cost. South African marine salvage expert Nick Sloane, who is in charge of the project, now has a $130-million investor. Moving ahead, all he requires is a signed agreement by June 30 with the authorities to buy iceberg water.
