In the 1990s, a group of women in the African country of Gambia organized to take
action on plastic bags. Lacking any recycling programs, people had been throwing their
used plastic bags on the ground, along with other trash. Because plastic doesn't
decompose the way other waste does, piles of bags accumulated. What could they do?
The women came up with a novel answer for the plastic bag puzzle. They collected and
cleaned old bags, then reused them by cutting them into strips and crocheting or knitting
items such as purses from the plastic. Selling their handiwork at markets, the women
raised money for additional recycling programs, which enabled them to further reduce
plastic litter
