11. South Sudan

Score – 11

The issue with South Sudan is mostly the same as with Chad – it’s not the pollutants that are in the air that are putting the nation on this list, but rather the lack of sanitation methods. In fact, the country ranks last when it comes to this topic, with only 7 percent of the inhabitants having access to proper sanitation methods.

Thankfully, however, a couple of years ago, the South Sudanese government handed out a law banning smoking in public places, although implementation leaves something to be desired.
