The East African country of Kenya has been at the forefront of the global war on plastic since 2017, when officials outlawed plastic bags. In June 2020, the government upped the ante with a ban on single-use plastics in protected areas. Unfortunately, the preemptive measures have barely made a dent. Hundreds of tons of industrial and consumer polymer waste continue to get dumped into landfills daily. However, if 29-year-old Nzambi Matee has her way, the unsightly plastic heaps will soon be transformed into colorful bricks.

- animereina2021약 4년Nzambi is awesome! I feel like more people should take more thought on what they are doing to our earth. Most people don't pay attention to the sky much, and what I mean by this is that people don't really think about our planet much, or even the fact that we live on earth either. Fossil fuels and the use of cars is giving a lot of pollution to our air, and the last thing we want happening to earth is it ending. And I get it, some plastics would take more than 100 years to decompose. This pandemic had given us a lot of opportunities to be more creative, and this impresses me. This is very awesome!
