Africa Climate Week.
Thank you all for being here today. It is an honour to be here with you in commemoration of Africa Climate Week. Francois Hollande said brilliantly: “we have a single mission: to protect and hand on the planet to the next generation.” Now I ask, “can we confidently say that we are creating a better world for the children of today and those of tomorrow?”
With deep passion and concern for the future of underprivileged children in Ghana, I launched the Joselyn Canfor-Dumas Foundation six years ago. Since then, we have spearheaded initiatives and supported existing efforts to improve the lives of many Ghanaian children, because I believe in the future of today’s child. In education and health, we’ve done some great work, notably the ‘X Cholera Project’. But the success of our efforts is evidently at risk, if we don’t change our attitude towards our environment.
One of the biggest environmental challenges of our current existence is Climate Change. Rising temperatures and sea levels, extreme weather conditions, diminution of aquatic life, gas emissions that threaten ecosystems, reduction in agriculture produces are some of the urgent calls to why we need to pay close attention to the subjected issue and take immediate action to avoid what we can prevent today from happening tomorrow. The lives of many are at risk, and children are unfortunately the most vulnerable.
Sadly, in Ghana, we have also experienced the devastating effects of climate change and its rippling effects. It has negatively affected health, food supply, economic growth, security and quality of life.
There have been many fatal cases of flooding across the continent, and a common denominator remains the amount of plastic waste these countries generate. Disappointingly, this waste is poorly disposed of; it is in gutters, blocking drainage systems and dumped on makeshift landfills out in the open. When we throw plastic waste indiscriminately into our gutters and unto the streets, let us remember that the rains will eventually come, which can cause flooding, and wreak havoc in our communities and on our future.
On June 3rd, 2015, our nation suffered a tragic loss because we failed to act before then. That day will be remembered as one of the saddest days in our history of natural disasters when 154 people died after a severe flood. Those who survived will always have their scars to remind them of that night. We need to ensure that it never happens again.
Infectious diseases like cholera, caused by poor sanitary conditions, including plastic pollution, are highly sensitive to climate conditions. When it rains, or worse, floods, these diseases will spread and affect more people, especially our children. Some of us will live through its effects, but many others will not.
This is a call to action. We can all do one small thing that will make a big difference and it begins with us – in our homes, schools, workplaces, places of worship and in our communities. Let us ask ourselves:
• What can I do differently today?
• How can I keep my environment clean? Not just for me, but for everyone around me
• How can I educate my family, friends and colleagues about reducing, reusing and recycling plastics?
• How can we come together to battle the effects to climate change?
Mr President, thank you for making a commitment to back efforts that tackle climate change. I truly believe that Ghana can be an example for the continent if we all come together and commit ourselves to the cause, and active policies are put in place to drive this objective. I, for one, pledge to do my one small thing, and ask all citizens of Ghana to pledge with me.
When we neglect our environment, let us remember that we are denying many children the opportunity to a healthy, bright and happy future. Every child deserves a safe space to learn, play, grow and thrive. Climate Action in Africa is a race we can win if we all resolve to be the change we want to see.
The time is now.
Thank you.
Yesterday I had the privilege to be interviewed on @hoxtonradio To hear the interview go to @plasticwastesolutions IGTV and you can hear all about how we can solve plastic waste. . . . #hoxtonradio #interview #radio #liveinterview #entrepreneur #plasticwastesolutions #entrepreneurship #philanthropy https://www.instagram.com/p/BojnPUxFvk1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1rg0ldoo0taho
Recycling is a complicated system dictated by market demand, price determinations, local regulations, the success of which is contingent upon everyone, from the product-designer, to the trash-thrower, to the waste collector, to the recycling factory worker. We consumers play a much more critical role than we might imagine-- depending on how we use our products and in what shape we throw them away, determines their value and quality post-use. #plasticwastesolutions #wastelessworld #plasticpollution #plasticeducation #plasticawareness #plasticpollutionsolution #wastefree #sustainability #plasticwastesolution #savetheocean #dotherightthing #waste_less_world (at Bocas del Toro, Panama) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJGt5RsnVDz/?igshid=ouc54o8vm3y3
I’m so excited to announce that although we have been meeting for months now, today before a very productive meeting with the mayor @unidosporbocas and @waste_less_world have officially joined forces. Since our first Zoom meeting a number of months ago we have since met a number of times in person to discuss the theme of waste management in the area and how we can work together to create a long lasting solution to a number of problems the community and our environment face. United for a clean bocas, a clean ocean, a clean environment where we waste less, live more and love more ❤️ Unite with us, to be a part of our team or to simply stay informed, make sure you follow the link in our bio. Your details will not be shared and only used for this project. With you, we look forward to making bocas even more amazing than it already is ❤️🙌🇵🇦 #plasticwastesolutions #recyclingprojects #recyclingproject #reducewaste♻️ #wastefree #recyclablechristmas #reusereducerecycle #recycle #plasticfree #wastesolutions #bocasdeltoro #islacolon #unidosporbocas #community #togetherwecan (at Bocas del Toro, Panama) https://www.instagram.com/p/CI16whOH1QK/?igshid=18hm0u13ruw75

Single use plastic waste is the major contributor for marine pollution. The plastic we use for one time storage of beverages (water bottles) and food (takeaway boxes) end up in the ocean killing our sea life. Within 7 minutes of injesting plastic rays, sharks are many more like them can die! And so, many are dying. So many species today have come to extinction because of it. Next time you want to go watch dolphins, whales or want to scuba dive think about how we might not get to see any of the marine life in the future if we dont save them. Solution? [ ✅] Avoid single use plastics! [✅ ] If you end up with plastic them reuse them, recycle them. This way we can keep them out of the ocean. [ ✅] Recycling options: Check with local recycling centres about the types of plastic they accept. To find a place to recycle plastic waste nearby, check Earth911’s recycling directory. [✅ ] Going extra mile: You could volunteer in organized beach clean ups to help remove plastic from the ocean. There are regular events organized by International coastal cleanup. Let's make a conscious effort to save marine life. Visiting beaches or snorkeling will not be the same If we don't. ‐-----‐---------------------------------⠀ Get featured:⠀ ⠀ Tag: @backpacker_shru ⠀ Use: #backpackershru ⠀ ‐-‐‐------------------------------------⠀ #plasticwaste #plasticwastesolutions #plasticwastemanagement #plasticwastesucks #plasticwastemovement #plasticwasteland #plasticwastes #plasticwastekills #plasticwastefree #plasticwasteiskillingouroceans #marinelifematters #protectmarinelife #savemarinelife #marinelifephotography #marinelifepark #marinelifeconservation #marinelifeprotection #plastickillsmarinelife #marinelifestyle #marinelifeideas #lovemarinelife #marinelifelover #marinelifes #marineliferescue #marinelifemonday #marinelifecenter #marinelifeinstitute #marinelifematterstt #marinelifemari https://www.instagram.com/p/CEN_VVPpCbX/?igshid=1ni5ploehdfej

Britain's first plastic-free shopping isle opens In London's Belsize Park. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/11/07/britains-first-plastic-free-supermarket-zones-open/ Andrew Thornton, who owns the Budgens franchise, said: “We’re hoping that what we’re doing here will challenge the likes of Sainsbury’s, Tesco and others. As soon as one of them turns round to the big producers such as Coca-cola, Heinz or Unilever and says “unless you stop sending us products in plastic, we’re not going to stock them”, change will come very quickly. For many products, plastic packaging has been replaced by old-fashioned looking paper bags made from cellulose, a structural component of the cell walls of green plants. #plasticwastesolutions #shoppingplasticfree #ThorntonsBudgens #Belsizepark https://www.instagram.com/p/BrP_724HGlB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ijoo91nakglk
