The One Plastic Bag 25th Anniversary Gambia tour is happening NOW! If you’re in the Gambia, don’t miss out.

Miranda and Isatou are heading all over the Gambia February 18-28, 2013 to celebrate the environment with young Gambian students, and empower them to make a difference in their own communities.

Please join us for the opening event, a book launch and autographing party at Timbooktoo Bookstore in Fajara, Gambia! (3 Garba Jahumpa Road; Bakau New Town, Fajara M Section.) The event will be held on Friday, February 17th from 3:00-6:00 p.m. Meet and greet with Miranda Paul, environmentalist Isatou Ceesay, and watch live recycling demonstrations with the volunteers from Women’s Initiative the Gambia. Autographed books will be available for purchase and light refreshments will be served. Join the party of the decade! We hope to see you there.
