Bye Bye Plastic Bags

The “book of the month,”One Plastic Bag, By: Miranda Paul is about a girl named Isatou in Gambia. Isatou sees all of this plastic on ground, and all of the goats are eating all of the plastic and are choking. Isatou does not like it. This is what she does, she gets together with some people, and crochet the plastic bags into wallets.

We also saw a TED Talk about two kids who live in Bali. They started campaign to get rid of plastic bags. They were supposed to to finish in 2018 but they finished a year early!!! I think it is amazing that two kids can stop something big.
