Swish. Crinkle. Plastic Man walks in clothes made of food bags. He teaches people to use less plastic.
He is sad when he sees trash on the beach. He wants Earth to be clean.
Pray people will not throw plastic on the ground or in water. May we treat God’s creation with great care.

The outfit turns heads. He travels to cities all over Senegal to show people the damage plastic can do. His wife and children support his work. Senegal passed a law in 2020 that banned some plastic products.
May we honor God in how we care for Earth. He kindly gave Earth “to the children of man.” (Psalm 115:16)
