Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Employees of AngloGold Ashanti (AGA) Iduapriem Mine, have marked this year\u2019s World Environment Day with tree planting exercise and a litter clean-up campaign around the company\u2019s operational area, ongoing project sites, and selected communities.<\/p>\n

A statement issued by AGA, copied to the Ghana News Agency said World Environment Day is globally observed annually on June 5 to encourage worldwide awareness and action for the protection of the environment. It noted that this year\u2019s event was commemorated on the theme: \u201cOnly One Earth.\u201d<\/p>\n

Speaking at a ceremony to launch activities for World Environment Day, Mr Samuel Boakye Pobee, the Managing Director of Iduapriem Mine, said the company was committed to investing in technology that brings its operations closer to zero emissions and highlighted some initiatives the Mine had taken to contribute to environmental protection and the UN Sustainable Development Goals.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have chosen to deploy caterpillar\u2019s Dynamic Gas Blending (DGB) technology at our Mine in line with the International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM) goal of achieving emission-free surface mining vehicles by 2040 and promoted restoration of ecosystem and its services with our rehabilitation programme,\u201d Mr Pobee stated.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have also initiated a biodiversity survey to assess the state of current ecosystem services within our concession, installed a 346 mega-watt solar plant to provide power for the Mine\u2019s residential areas and upgraded our water treatment plant to ensure that good quality water is discharged from our operations, among others.\u201d<\/p>\n

He, therefore, reiterated the company\u2019s commitment to conduct its operations in a sustainable and environmentally responsible manner, and entreated all employees and stakeholders to reflect on ways to interact and live in harmony with nature to save the earth for future generations.<\/p>\n

On his part, Mr William Addo, Manager, Environment, Iduapriem Mine noted that every Ghanaian had a role to play in protecting the environment and called for collective sense of responsibility and efforts to preserve the environment for sustainable development.<\/p>\n

\u201cWorld Environment Day is a reminder to all of us to protect our natural resources and promote a sustainable and safer environment,\u201d Mr Addo said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe only have one earth; we cannot afford to lose it.\u201d<\/p>\n

The statement said prior to this event, Iduapriem Mine in collaboration with the Centre for National Culture and the National Youth Authority organized a symposium on the theme: Preserving Our Environment for Posterity: The Role of Stakeholders. It noted that it was aimed at promoting sound environmental practices in the wake of climate change.<\/p>\n
