Why arent second hand trucks welcome in Kenya?
If you\u2019ve ever been stuck in Nairobi traffic, you\u2019ll know that the emissions from cars and trucks is no joke.\nAccording to the World Health Organisation, air pollution contributes to 18,000 deaths per year in Kenya.\nThe government is taking the issue seriously and has set targets to cut emissions by 2030.\nFirst on their hit list are older trucks, which are thought to be significantly worse polluters. \nThe government has banned the import of trucks older than three years.\nAnd by the summer importing second hand trucks will be banned all together. \nSo, can it help bring air pollution down?
