Since the 1980s, Brett Christophers wrote recently in the LRB, ‘firms have made vast amounts of money by sending the rich world's waste to the global South' – hazardous waste at first, joined more recently by discarded electronics, clothes and plastics. Literal mountains of our rubbish are accumulating on the peripheries of cities such as Accra and Delhi. Waste, like wealth, is unevenly distributed. On this episode, Brett joins Tom to discuss what happens to our rubbish after we throw it away. They talk about where it goes and why it's so difficult actually to get rid of it, let alone reduce the amount we discard, when the creation of waste is so much more profitable.

Greetings Glocal Citizens! This week on the podcast as I'm easing back into the flow of life in Accra after a whirlwind trip across the US via London. My experiences in the US inlcluded much needed R&R in Hawaii, where I met some amazing new connections--stay tuned for those conversations early next year. Next, I revisited my alma mater, Stanford University for reunion-homecoming weekend and reconnected with classmates doing truly amazing work, which you'll also hear about soon. The rest of my time was spent getting myself organized for a new chapter on this Pan-African progres mission, engaging with #UNGA80 in New York City, and gathering my thoughts in Colorado. As part of my thought gathering and as five years of storytelling with dynamic diasporans becomes six, this week's compilation is a reflection on visionary entrepreneurs doing essential work improving food systems, as stewards of earth's abundant resources, and by building and delivering value to communities. Each of these guests - Luther Lawoyin, founder and CEO of Pricepally in Nigeria; Nana Opoku Ageyman-Prempeh, CEO of Grow For Me in Ghana; Wellington Baiden, CEO of Portal Forest Estates also in Ghana; and Asmeret Berhe-Lumax, founder of the One Love Community Fridge Project in the US, engages daily with the realities of the global challenges we are all facing - the availability and access to affordable, quality food; improving the livelihoods of those that deliver that food; and planning the land for the long haul. The great thing about each of their entgerprises is that they are all growing and going strong with mission critical works, AND you can help ensure their continued success with your time, investment and/or donations.

President of the Federal Republic of Germany, His Excellency Frank-Walter Steinmeier, has arrived in Ghana for a three-day state visit

Greetings Glocal Citizens! Last week, Ghana lost another living legend, the first lady of the 4th Republic, Madam Nana Konadu Ageyman Rawlings. As we mourn this loss, I can't help but to take note of how 2025 has been a year punctuated with transitions of many of Ghana's cultural icons as well as civic leaders--all passionate about not only their crafts but forward movement, Ghana's progress. I invited my guest this week to join me in conversation particularly because of way that her craft, her passion and her lineage converge in a story that is and will continue to make an impact on arts, culture and economic development in Ghana and beyond. Ghanaian- American, Aretha Amma Sarfo-Kantanka is an accomplished global branding professional who has been instrumental in driving retail sales via innovative retail marketing and branding campaigns juxtaposing the fashion and music industry.

Au Ghana, les conséquences environnementales du « galamsey », nom local donné à l'orpaillage illégal, sont de plus en plus sérieuses : forêts détruites, risque de pénurie d'eau potable, agriculture en danger. C'est le constat d'un nouveau rapport publié le mois dernier par l'antenne ghanéenne de l'organisation environnementale américaine Pure Earth. L'étude identifie notamment onze localités, où la pollution liée au secteur aurifère sont particulièrement perceptibles, et impacte directement la vie des populations riveraines des exploitations. Notre correspondant au Ghana s'est rendu dans l'une d'entre elles. Reportage dans la commune de Asiakwa, dans la région orientale, à deux heures de la capitale Accra, où les habitants ont dû renoncer à utiliser l'eau de leur rivière. De notre correspondant au Ghana, Midi approchant, Joyce Obngwaa, commerçante, s'apprête à manger dans sa boutique. Au menu ce midi, un ragoût de kontomire, dont elle sort quelques feuilles de son sac. Pour les rincer cependant, pas question d'utiliser l'eau courante. « C'est parce que les orpailleurs illégaux polluent notre eau naturelle, on ne peut pas utiliser cette eau pour laver les légumes, se laver ou toute autre tâche ménagère. On est donc obligé d'utiliser de l'eau propre qu'on achète en sachet. Ça me rend triste », regrette-t-elle.  Voilà près de deux ans que les quelque 3 000 habitants de la commune d'Asiakwa ont dû se détourner de leur rivière. Pour avoir de l'eau propre, il faut maintenant l'acheter, ou creuser des puits, ce qui engendre des coûts importants pour les finances de la commune, selon les autorités locales. À lire aussiAu Ghana, comment rendre le secteur minier plus respectueux de l'environnement ? En cause, une eau de rivière surchargée en plomb et en mercure, des métaux lourds toxiques que l'on retrouve fréquemment à proximité des sites d'orpaillage illégal opérant tout autour de la commune, parfois à même la rivière. Des dégâts qu'Ebenezer Aborakwa, ancien élu communal, constate tous les jours en se rendant près des cours d'eau : « Je me souviens de la couleur de l'eau, avant, elle était très propre. Aujourd'hui, vous le voyez, elle a la couleur de la terre du sol. Les mineurs ne couvrent pas leurs exploitations, donc quand il pleut, la pluie emporte toute la saleté, qui finit dans la rivière. » À ses côtés, plusieurs hommes acquiescent, l'air grave. Armés de fusils, ils font partie d'une équipe anti-orpaillage illégal mise en place par le chef traditionnel local. Francis Tetteh fait partie de cette équipe. Il raconte : « Quand on voit des gens qui minent illégalement, on les arrête. Mais il faut que le gouvernement nous aide, nous donne des moyens, sinon on n'y arrivera pas dans la durée. » À lire aussi«Arrêtez le galamsey»: au Ghana, des manifestants dénoncent l'inaction du gouvernement face à l'orpaillage illégal L'inspection presque terminée, un quad déboule des fourrés. À son bord, trois jeunes, des orpailleurs illégaux, qui reviennent tout juste de la mine. Après quelques échanges tendus, la situation se calme. Joseph, 21 ans, accepte de témoigner. « Ils nous disent d'arrêter, qu'on pollue l'eau, mais moi, je ne suis pas d'accord. La situation économique n'est pas bonne, la jeunesse souffre. C'est pour ça que je mine, pour aider ma mère, mes frères », explique-t-il. Joseph et ses deux amis repartent finalement, sous le regard désapprobateur, mais aussi impuissant, des hommes armés. Ils le savent : tant qu'il n'y aura pas de réelles opportunités d'embauches pour la jeunesse locale, la rivière, elle, restera teintée par l'orpaillage illégal.
