ISBN:  9781467716086 (lib. bdg. : alk. paper) Alternate title:  Isatou Ceesay and the recycling women of the Gambia Description:  1 v. (unpaged) : col. illus., col. map ; 24 x 28 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references. Summary:  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. The bags accumulated in ugly heaps alongside roads. Water pooled in them, bringing mosquitoes and disease. Some bags were burned, leaving behind a terrible smell. Some were buried, but they strangled gardens. They killed livestock that tried to eat them. Something had to change. Isatou Ceesay was that change. She found a way to recycle the bags and transform her community. This inspirational true story shows how one person's actions really can make a difference in our world. Other authors:  Zunon, Elizabeth.
