    • GREAT video! I used to live in Accra and am familiar with that area. The beaches around Accra can be very nasty and solid waste is only a part of the problem. Rivers of raw sewage flow into the ocean and the smell in some places is pretty strong.

      I am glad to see people trying to make the best of the problem.

      Thanks for posting!

    • Creation in action! And it is helping to pick up the mess! Talk about being productive! If only more people had such a motivating concern. Great video !

    • Hi,

      thanks for the comment.

      All the music in the movie it´s from a alternative band from Spain, called "FILASTINE" you can find more in myspace.
