This is what irresponsible mining is doing to waterbodies in Ghana. This is the Juen Lagoon on the southern border of Ghana and La Cote D'Ivoire. Once crisp, clear lagoon has been poisoned and rendered useless for local communiies that rely on it. The Government and leaders of Ghana pay lip service because they are mostly complicit. We need local voices amplified so we can avert this existential threat.
