It gives me no pleasure to share such photographs but this is the trash on the Mamba Point beach. The beaches in central Monrovia have been trashed because 1) there were/are communities living right on/very close to the the beaches 2) inconsistent city garbage collection. We should be asking for: Ban plastics. Clean up beaches. Create recycling opportunities. And, be transparent on garbage collection and waste disposal. What's happening with landfills? Are they sustainably being managed?
The answer is no. See this piece Suffering Silently in Whein Town.
