加纳大学Samuel Agyei-Mensah教授警告说,该国不可能在2030年之前实现普及安全饮用水的可持续发展目标6.1。 Professor Samuel Agyei-Mensah of the University of Ghana warns that the country is unlikely to achieve the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6.1 for universal access to safe drinking water by 2030. 只有26%-50%的人口使用安全管理的用水,非法开采和城市扩张加剧了污染问题。 With only 26-50% of the population using safely managed water, illegal mining and urban expansion exacerbate contamination issues. 他呼吁举行一次全国首脑会议,制定长期的水事战略,并建议更严格地执行禁止非法采矿的法律,以提高水的安全性。 He calls for a national summit to create a long-term water strategy and suggests stricter enforcement of laws against illegal mining to improve water safety.
