As I look around in my country for environmental programs and activities these are what I captured

Waste

Waste management is arguable the greatest public health in Monrovia. Waste management, a life-saving sector citing the high health care costs and low income people tends to say that they cannot afford to pay for waste management. Prior to the conflict, domestic and commercial solid waste in central Monrovia was collected and hauled for disposal by the Monrovia City Cooperation. In order to improve efficiency, a private waste collection system was introduced under the service name ?Betty Garbage System?? which help my country to have an improvement in waste management.

The Misuse of Wetlands in Liberia

Wetlands are misuse by what is meant by unwanted conversion of wetlands in and around Monrovia, into dumping sites for medical, industrial and domestic wastes. People are using unscientific methods to reclaim wetlands for the construction of makes-shift shelters.

The wetland is very good for environmental purpose so it is good for us to protect or wetlands. There are areas in my country that have been misused for dumping waste, reclaiming and construction they are: Samuel K. Doe Boulevard, Sophie Ice cream Shop {Catholic Hospital Junction, St. Paul Bridge community, Somalia Drive and the Stockton Creek Bridge which are nice cites for tourist.

The Environmental Protection Agency intervened and did try in helping with the protection of our wetlands.

Did you know that there are wetlands in Liberia?

The Agriculture in Liberia

The Principal foods of Liberia are rice and cassava (manioc). Due to insecurity caused by the conflict, many field s were left unplanted and food production plummeted. Production has not yet recovered to prewar levels and the country must import rice to meet its needs. According to estimation by FAO from 2003, less than 10 percent of the 4,6 million hectares of arable land cultivated. Other crops grown for local consumption include sugarcane, bananas, plantains, citrus, pineapple, sweet potatoes, corn and vegetables.

In the aftermath of the war, Liberia is now one of the most insecure countries in the world, with more than one third of its population undernourished.

Traditionally, domestic production of the country?s main staple foods, rice and cassava, still relies on a traditionally low input\low input, shifting cultivation, mixed crop system. As a result, the use of chemical inputs such as fertilizers and pesticides is not widespread. Liberia has a never conducted an inventory of potential chemical stocks and pesticides, and the degree of potential risk is unknown.
