World Water Day 2025
World Water Day 2025: Glacier Preservation Matters!
Water is the lifeblood of our planet, sustaining all living beings, supporting ecosystems, and enabling food production. As we commemorate World Water Day 2025, themed 'Glacier Preservation,' it is crucial to recognize the critical yet often overlooked role glaciers play in our environment.
Research shows that glaciers and ice sheets store approximately 70% of the world's freshwater, making them indispensable to global water consumption and security. Nearly 2 billion people depend on water from glaciers, snowmelt, and mountain runoff for drinking, agriculture, and energy production. Glaciers play a vital role in regulating the climate system and the freshwater hydrological cycle.
However, glaciers are melting at an alarming rate due to climate change driven by the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation. This accelerated melting threatens freshwater supplies for millions, disrupts ecosystems, and impacts economic growth and livelihoods. Furthermore, melting glaciers contribute to rising sea levels, which increase coastal erosion and the risk of storm surges.
Rising sea levels pose a significant threat to Ghana, especially to its coastal communities. According to reports from the Africa Center for Strategic Studies and the Africa Climate Mobility Initiative, sea levels are projected to rise by 0.3 meters by 2030 affecting millions of people. A report from the World Bank indicates Ghana's sea levels are increasing at a rate of 0.21 cm per year, with forecasts indicating a 16.5 cm rise by 2050 and a 34.5 cm rise by 2080. Coastal areas like Keta face severe risks, including erosion and the displacement of communities.
Researchers estimate that approximately 5,000 homes along Keta's coast are at risk of collapse within the next five years. Experts emphasize that stabilizing global warming by reducing carbon emissions is the most effective mitigation measure.
At the Centre for Sustainability and Environmental Action ( CSEA ), we acknowledge the indispensable role glaciers play in preserving our planet's water resources, biodiversity, and climate stability. We remain committed to sustainable water management, conservation, and climate action. Through our initiatives such as afforestation, tree planting, conservation, clean water projects, and climate adaptation, we contribute to protecting our natural water sources and fostering a more resilient future.
Join us in raising awareness and taking action to protect our glaciers and water resources! Together, we can safeguard the environment for generations to come.

Services
CSEA : Our work is centred around - What we do
Capacity Building, Training and Leadership
Capacity building, training, and leadership programs are designed to enhance individuals' skills, knowledge, and capabilities, empowering them to take on leadership roles and drive positive change within their organizations or communities.
Environmental, Education and Awareness Creation
Environmental education and awareness creation play crucial roles in fostering a deeper understanding of our interconnectedness with the natural world and empowering individuals and communities to take informed actions towards conservation and sustainability.
Youth and Women Empowerment
Youth and women empowerment are crucial for sustainable development, as they contribute to building resilient communities and fostering inclusive growth. Empowering young people and women involves providing access to education, skills training, and economic opportunities, enabling them to participate fully in decision-making processes and become agents of positive change. By investing in youth and women, societies can harness their potential to drive innovation, promote social equity, and address pressing global challenges, including poverty, inequality, and environmental degradation.
Climate Change
Climate change, driven by human activities such as the burning of fossil fuels, is causing profound disruptions to the Earth's climate system, with far-reaching consequences for ecosystems and societies worldwide..
Policy Dialogue and Engagement
Policy dialogue and engagement serve as essential mechanisms for fostering collaboration and consensus-building among stakeholders to address complex environmental challenges, enabling the development of effective and equitable policies and strategies for sustainable development.
Pollution and Waste
Pollution and waste pose significant threats to environmental and human health, with diverse sources ranging from industrial emissions to plastic pollution. Addressing these issues requires comprehensive strategies that encompass pollution prevention, waste reduction, recycling, and the adoption of cleaner technologies to minimize their adverse impacts on ecosystems and communities.
Biodiversity and Conservation
Biodiversity, the variety of life on Earth, is fundamental to ecosystem functioning and human well-being. Conservation efforts aimed at protecting biodiversity involve preserving habitats, preventing species extinction, and promoting sustainable land and resource management practices. By safeguarding biodiversity, we not only maintain the resilience of ecosystems but also ensure the continued provision of vital ecosystem services, such as clean air, water, and food, upon which human societies depend.
Innovation and Entrepreneurship
Innovation and entrepreneurship are pivotal in addressing environmental challenges and fostering sustainable development. By harnessing creativity and technology, entrepreneurs can develop novel solutions for resource efficiency, renewable energy, waste management, and conservation. These innovations not only drive economic growth but also contribute to environmental protection and social progress, paving the way for a more sustainable future.
Environmental and Social Risk Management
Environmental and social risk management involves identifying, assessing, and mitigating potential adverse impacts on both the environment and communities affected by business activities. This process encompasses various aspects such as conducting environmental impact assessments, engaging with stakeholders, implementing mitigation measures, and monitoring performance to ensure compliance with environmental regulations and social standards. By proactively addressing these risks, businesses can enhance their sustainability credentials, minimize reputational damage, and foster positive relationships with stakeholders.
Sustainable Agriculture and Forest Restoration
Sustainable agriculture and forest restoration are integral components of efforts to promote environmental conservation and mitigate climate change. Sustainable agriculture practices focus on maximizing productivity while minimizing environmental impacts, such as soil erosion and chemical pollution, through methods like agroforestry, crop rotation, and organic farming. Forest restoration initiatives aim to replenish degraded landscapes, enhance biodiversity, and sequester carbon by planting trees, restoring habitats, and implementing sustainable forestry practices. By prioritizing these approaches, we can ensure the long-term health and resilience of ecosystems while supporting local livelihoods and food security.
