We now live in Ghana, where tea doesn't just flow from a kettle but straight from our rivers and faucets.
Ghana, a land of abundance, a land flowing with the riches of nature, much like the biblical land of milk and honey, now tells a darker tale.
Illegal mining has transformed what was once a pillar of prosperity into a looming disaster.
Instead of clear, life-giving water, what now flows through our taps is "tea", water overwhelmed by waste and hazardous substances.
