The usage of single-use plastics in Ghana from sachet water to black polythene bags, etc. is a worrying situation considering it’s impact on the environment. There remains a lack of political will by regulatory and state agencies to ban the importation, production, and consumption of single-use plastics. While many other African countries have adopted punitive legislative anti-plastic bans targeting the importation, production, and consumption of single use plastics, Ghana has been slow in adopting regulatory mechanisms to tackle plastics.
