One Plastic Bag: Isatou Ceesay and the Recycling Women of the Gambia
Miranda Paul
Brief Description: Introduces the efforts of a woman in the Gambia who found a way to recycle the hundreds of discarded plastic bags that littered her community. Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references.; Plastic bags are cheap and easy to use. But what happens when a bag breaks or is no longer needed? In Njau, Gambia, people simply dropped the bags and went on their way. One plastic bag became two. Then ten. Then a hundred. Review Citations:
