Captain Planet Foundation, renowned global environmental non-profit organization, has appointed Timothy Karikari to its board of directors. His appointment makes him the first African to be appointed to the board of the US based foundation.
Speaking to the press on his appointment, Mr. Karikari said: “This appointment is strategic as it affords me the opportunity to share experiences from our sub region with other environmentalists across the globe in advocating for a better world.
Despite the many environmental challenges we face in Ghana including illegal mining popularly called ‘Galamsey’, illegal trade in Rosewood etc., recent campaigns launched by government such as Operation Stop Galamsey in Water Bodies, Green Ghana Project and others inspires hope,” he said.
