Accra, the centre for economic activities and capital of Ghana, is affected by the heat island effect. As cities like Accra grow, they hold heat in giant buildings and roads made of concrete, and suffer from rising temperatures.
The city, though, has always inspired innovative thinking. This is one of the few residential buildings with greenery I have come across. Aside from helping mitigate rising temperatures, buildings like this also improve wellbeing.
