On June 11, 2021, Ghana marked a historic step toward environmental sustainability with the launch of the inaugural Green Ghana Day. This nationwide initiative aimed to combat deforestation and climate change by planting five million trees across the country. The event was a key part of Ghana’s broader strategy to restore forest cover, enhance biodiversity, and promote sustainable development.
In the Bosomtwe District, the local assembly took a leading role in this ambitious effort by actively participating in the tree-planting campaign. The project brought together government agencies, non-governmental organizations, schools, and local communities, all united in their commitment to protecting Ghana’s natural resources. Beyond restoring forests, the initiative promises long-term benefits such as improved air quality, increased agricultural productivity, and greater ecological balance.
Green Ghana Day symbolizes the nation's growing dedication to environmental stewardship and highlights a collective responsibility to secure a greener, healthier future for generations to come.
