Women at the Kantamanto market selling used clothes

Every day arrive about 160 tones of used clothes from Europe, China and the United States in Ghana. The women at the market buy big balls to sell them. The problem is that with the fast fashion the quality of the used clothes is less and produces a tremendous environmental problem in the country.
