Very dangerous indeed. If you see the number of cargo trucks fully loaded with charcoal coming from the northern parts of Ghana you will weep. Has anybody taken time to ask him or herself how charcoal is produced? Currently economic trees such as the Shea nut tree is under serious threat as charcoal producer believe charcoal from the sheanut tree doesn't burn fast . Unfortunately some of the district assemblies who should take the lead in stopping this menance rather take exportation fees/ levies from those transporting the charcoal to the south just to boost their internally generated funds thus they lack the moral justification to call for a halt in this activity. The interesting thing is that they very governments which wants to encourage the use of LPG seems not to have any control over fuel pricing so both government and the people are pretending to be concerned about deforestation and desertification, who are they deceiving? Themselves or nature. Gross over into Burkina Faso, you dare not cut a tree, attempt it and see something you have never seen before.Thats Ghana for you, as governments/ politicians are pretending to be working, the people also join them in the ' pretending race '.
