Ghana has lost 45 per cent of forest cover



Ghana has lost 45 per cent of forest cover

Ghana has already lost about 45 per cent of her forest cover, and suggested an efficient regulation of the activities of chain saw operators in the country.

Currently about 36 billion tons of carbon dioxide is produced annually out of which about 17 billion tons is released into the atmosphere.Africa will reduce its carbon dioxide emission since the continent contributed very little to carbon dioxide emission globally.

Low public awareness about the subject and the effects of forest cover and climate change. emphasizing the need for people to know about the happenings , to facilitate attitudinal change among the wider public.
