Ghana: The Commute That Pollutes - How Ghana's Poor Urban Cities Are Sickening Millions

Commuters in Ghana's largest cities face daily traffic congestion as thousands travel from residential outskirts to urban centers for work and education. This recurring morning ritual involves high volumes of vehicles moving toward key institutions, including ministries, hospitals, and universities.

The resulting traffic density contributes to significant air pollution in densely populated urban areas. This environmental impact poses long-term health risks to millions of residents living within these polluted city environments.
