As part of rigorous measures to raise awareness on ozone depletion, climate change, and other environmental challenges confronting developing countries by the year 2030, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has intensified its campaign on ozone-friendly human activities in selected academic and public institutions in five regions of the country to deepen the understanding, especially among students who are potential future leaders.
The annual campaign has targeted five regions this year, including the Bono, Eastern, Ashanti, Central, and Western regions.
The Acting Director of Climate Change and Ozone at the Environmental Protection Agency in Accra, Joseph Amankwa Baffoe, addressed the Royal Sanitation and Climate Change Ambassadors (ROSACA) Club of Ahantaman Girls' Senior High School at a seminar in Takoradi on World Ozone Day Celebrations in the Western Region.
This event was part of the EPA's annual awareness campaign on the importance of the ozone layer to human life and measures to save it from depletion to prevent dire consequences on the environment.
