Pollution in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso

contaminated waters, never drink it from tap o used to brush you teeth. Never ever swin in lake or stagnant waters (expect swiming pools), as the risk of parasites are high.

Air : no many factories, so air should be good. Nevertheless, locals use wood to cook or to heat up, so there are a lot of smoke in the aire, especialy after 6pm.

The main problem is the orange dust wich penetrates everything, your home, your car, your phone, and of course your lungs. Locals use face masks when riding bike ou bicycle (like in China).
