The Atewa Forest in Ghana is a paradise of biodiversity: 25,000 hectares that are home to over 100 threatened species of animals, birds, and plants. It also provides clean water to over 5 million people, including Ghana’s capital, Accra. Now the forest is at the center of a heated dispute between the Ghanaian government, which wants to mine its resources, and conservationists, who vow to keep it intact. Ford’s Emmanuel Kuyole takes us inside this endangered Eden. Learn more: fordf.org/AtewaFores
