A book professing recommendations and techniques to aid communities to rapidly eradicating environmental problems was launched in Accra on Thursday, June 16, 2022.
The book, titled “Community Transformation Through Environmental Care Campaign" was authored by Apostle Samuel Edii Davidson, who wrote the book following a revelation from God to bring about transformational change in the space of environmental sanitation.
The 137-page book recommends various techniques and solutions to the numerous environmental challenges confronting communities in the country.
Some of the highlights of the book include seeking to get leaders of churches, Imams, assembly members, metropolitan, municipal and district chief executives (MMDCEs), students, traders among others to influence the citizenry to own the Environmental Care campaign.
It also emphasises the need for creative ideas to help bridge the gap between the powers that be and the grassroots.
Further, the book explains the need for Ghanaians to make a conscious effort to take charge of every space they find themselves and make such places clean and healthy.
According to the book, the clarion call to care for the environment was a wake-up call for every Ghanaian regardless of their religious and political affinity to make the "environment our responsibility."
The book launch attracted the Mayor of Accra, Elizabeth Sackey, Group Chairman of Tobinco Group of Companies, Dr. Samuel Amo Tobbin, President of the Worldwide Miracle Outreach, Rev. Dr. Lawrence Tetteh, and some chiefs and queen mothers of the Greater Accra Region.
Addressing the gathering, the Special Guest of Honour, Apostle Professor Agyapong Kodua, who is the Vice-Chancellor of the Pentecost University, commended Apostle Davidson for having the vision to write what he described as a "wonderful book."
He said the writing of the book was timely, adding that it has "clear environmental recipes of solutions for the timely addressing our sanitation problems."
He averred that environmental care was a collective duty and not one to be left in the hands of government or some specific individuals or companies.
