The Leader of Care for Nature, an NGO, Ms Ann Appiah has called for active enforcement of environmental laws to reduce the negative health and economic impact of water pollution on the country.
‘We need to enhance the enforcement of environmental laws to protect ourselves from water and other environmental pollution, which is costing the nation a fortune,” Ms Appiah, said.
The situation of water pollution, she said was more serious in the Cape Coast Metropolis, especially around the Fosu lagoon.
She said the EPA Act 1994 (Act 490), states that the Agency would in collaboration with its stakeholders enforce strictly the standards and guidelines relating to the pollution of air, water, land, and noise in the country.
