This is the reason why

Okay 

why do Ghanian ads have a family BBQing in their backyard on a green lawn? That is just ridiculous, I mean seriously Ghanians do not want to be a Canadian family on their annual camping trip, so why the obvious western(I might add culturally brain dead) ads?

If you are looking for any conclusions in this post you will not find them, I don’t know why western influence obliterates

Ghanian culture and I also don’t know why Canadians don’t take more hints from Ghanians—such as glass bottles that HAVE to be returned after your soda or else the shopkeeper comes after you(okay bit of an exaggeration, but there is an accountability chain—they have to return their full case of bottles for rebottling and I don’t litter or down cycle) So lesson learned the west(of increased technology) ,and may I add incredible waste is becoming more antiquated, and traditional methods are actually becoming more progressive through sustainability. Inverse relationship hey. I know this is  a very general statement, and what I am trying to say is that cultural practices based on the symbiotic relationships of nature are more our future than practices based on the industrial revolution of cradle to grave.

Basically this is a Cradle to Cradle rant.

Oh and p.s. if you think you see an animal darting away in the corner of your eye in Ghana, it probably is an animal and a fast random one at that-like a ghekko or a really skinny cat ( I would say a goat but they usually are pretty mellow and slow).
