Honestly, this galamsey crisis in Ghana is a textbook example of why we need real, progressive reform instead of empty political promises. The government's so-called "initiatives" just aren’t cutting it, and it’s the environment—and everyday people—who are paying the price. We need stronger regulations, actual enforcement, and transparency, not just more committees or task forces that never seem to do anything. I’m glad to see groups like UTAG and civil society speaking out and demanding accountability, because it’s clear that business as usual just leads to more destruction. Environmental justice has to be a priority, and that means holding everyone—no matter how politically connected—responsible for their actions. If we want a sustainable future for Ghana, we can’t let profit and corruption outweigh the health of our land and communities.
