| Abstract |
This fifth groundwork report focuses on the industrial complexes of the Vaal Triangle where communities experience environmental injustices determined by global corporate-led states. Corporate led injustices perpetuated against the people in the Vaal began in the apartheid era and are still starkly evident today, with environmental injustices perpetuated daily by state supported industrial pollution. This is a place where people are impoverished and denied their constitutional rights, not least of which their right to an "environment that is not harmful to their health and well-being", by capitalism. This report reflects on the challenges faced by people in the Vaal Triangle, builds upon the previous reports in the series and seeks to create a resource for people to strengthen their struggles, not only in the Vaal, but also nationally.
