加纳禁止森林保护区采矿,以打击非法采矿和保护生态系统。 Ghana bans mining in forest reserves to combat illegal mining and protect ecosystems.

加纳制定了永久禁止森林保护区采矿的立法,废除了允许总统批准在保护区采矿的2022年法律LI 2462。 Ghana has introduced legislation to permanently ban mining in forest reserves, revoking LI 2462, a 2022 law that allowed presidential approval for mining in protected areas. 这一举动的驱动力是公众对非法采矿(伽拉姆西岛)的关切,旨在制止环境退化,包括森林砍伐和水污染,并恢复更严格的2020年准则。 The move, driven by public concern over illegal mining (galamsey), aims to halt environmental degradation, including deforestation and water pollution, and restore stricter 2020 guidelines. 政府指出,44个森林保留区不断受到威胁,主要河流受到污染。 The government cites ongoing threats to 44 forest reserves and contamination of major rivers. 这项新文书如果在21天内未在议会受到质疑,将自动生效。 The new instrument, if not challenged in Parliament within 21 days, will take effect automatically.
