As demand for cocoa grows, forests in Liberia are being cleared at an alarming rate. Between 2024 and 2025, one county alone lost an area of primary forest more than four times the size of Manhattan. To know more we traveled to Kwa National Forest, one of West Africa's last remaining primary forests, to investigate the environmental cost of the cocoa boom. Ashoka Mukpo reports for #Mongabay. 👉️ https://mongabay.cc/MSWO5T #Liberia #Cocoa

A "cocoa rush" in Liberia’s remote southeast is driving a major deforestation crisis. Tens of thousands of migrant workers from Côte d’Ivoire are clearing West Africa’s last remaining rainforests for cocoa plantations, pushing Grand Gedeh county to record forest loss. Ashoka Mukpo reports for #Mongabay. https://mongabay.cc/MSWO5T #Liberia #Cocoa

Illegal cocoa plantations are fueling rapid deforestation in Liberia’s rainforests to supply global chocolate demand. Ashoka Mukpo met with rangers, landowners, and migrant workers, to investigate if southeastern Liberia is repeating Côte d'Ivoire’s devastating environmental history.
