With fisheries in Ghanaian waters collapsing, wetland and coastal communities in the southeast of Ghana harvest mangrove wood to sell for firewood. This mangrove forest degradation has led to a loss of biodiversity in the region. Mangroves protect shorelines from storms and floods, prevent erosion, and provide essential habitats for thousands of species. As a blue carbon ecosystem, mangroves also sequester carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store it in their biomass and sediment. Harvesting these incredibly important ecosystems could release significant greenhouse gas emissions.

The storm pictures of Chad Cowan, America - 2010

The Icemaker - Chad Cowan's Super Storms
It looks like the end of the world, instead this once-in-a-lifetime image shows a lightning bolt crackling from a hailstorm cloud.
The jaw-dropping picture - dubbed The Icemaker - captures the storm that unleashed the world record hail stone onto South Dakota in summer.
And storm chasing photographer Chad Cowan is hoping that this highlight of last storm season will win the National Geographic Exceptional Experiences photo contest, in which it is down to the last six finalists.
His gallery of best shots taken in 2010 also offer some amazing glimpses at nature at its most powerful.
The 26-year-old, a storm fan since his early teens, follows dramatic weather across the United States and even runs tours for storm fanatics.
But even for a seasoned storm chaser the decision to drive towards this storm was a cause for apprehension.
Chad, from Kansas, explains: "Looking at the radar on my laptop, it became obvious that there was one storm that would be an absolute monster.
"I became somewhat apprehensive in driving towards this storm because I saw that the ingredients of a 'perfect storm' had come together
"We saw this cloud explode into the sky like an atom bomb, and it soon became a supercell also, south of the larger storm.
"As we approached, though, my stomach dropped as the shape of the beast became visible above the horizon.
"I had never seen anything like it and didn't speak much, only muttering single syllable words like, "epic" and "woah".
"I finally got my wits about me and decided to get out my camera. I flipped it on, checked the settings and leaned out the window and snapped my first shot of the day.
"As fate would have it, I saw a lightning flash through my viewfinder as my shutter clicked. I didn't expect ...

Myanmar: A Country at a Crossroads
Light reflects off the pavement after a light evening rain in downtown Yangon, Myanmar, Thursday, August 16, 2007. The citizens of Myanmar live under a highly restrictive military regime where criticism of the ruling junta is not allowed. But lately there have been several protests against rising fuel prices, inflation and the poor living conditions in this southeast Asian country of over 50 million. The latest rallies are by far the largest in recent years. The most recent protest on Wednesday happened one day after the government arrested 13 dissidents overnight who had led a protest against the price increases, including 7 leaders of the 88 Generation Students Group. In 1990, the military junta held elections that it lost and quickly annulled.
Pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi has been under house arrest for most of the past 17 years since that time.
