Atmospheric pollution is the intrusion of the atmosphere of particles and gases, thus affecting its quality. In Togo, in Lomé more specifically, there is a strong air pollution due to the release of Smoke from the many industrial plants in the free zone. These fumes are composed of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, nitrogen dioxide and sulfur ... In addition, the smoke from the incineration of tires in the abattoir not far from Cimtogo.The health of the inhabitants of the locality and its surroundings is threatened by the unloading and reloading of the open-air clinker by the Burkinabe company CIMFASO. The inhabitants are therefore exposed to lung diseases, contamination Water and food, eye irritations ... In 2016, a program was devoted to the study of particles in West Africa, the results of the DACCIWA project are therefore expected in 2018.To finish I appeal to our Leaders to find solutions in order to honor their commitment which stipulates that every citizen has the right to live in a healthy environment

Tevi, thank you for your report. I can see from the report that air pollution is serious in Togo as well. If you wish to tell us more I think you can write about CIMFASO or DACCIWA more. That would help us grasp a big picture of air pollution in Togo.

Hi Tevi! Thanks for sharing your report about air pollution in Lome.
I can't believe that those pictures are real....
Some actions must be done as soon as possible.
Thanks again for the report!

It was a shocking news I heard about air pollution in your country. It needs everybody in the country to work together on this issue for their own health.
