Kenya, the East African country with coastline on the Indian Ocean, joined fellow African countries: Tunisia, Morocco, Rwanda, Uganda, Tanzania, Somalia, Botswana, Ethiopia, Mauritania and Eritrea in banning plastic bags. According to United Nations Environment Program, more than 8 million tons of plastic end up in the oceans every year, where they not only become a health hazard and public nuisance but also impact marine life, fisheries and tourism. At current rates, by 2050, there will be more plastic in the oceans than fish, wreaking havoc on marine fisheries, wildlife and tourism,” the program said in a statement when Kenya’s ban was announced in March. Kenyans need to adopt 100% re-usable and eco-friendly alternative packaging materials in the market like the Kiondo baskets (traditional baskets) similar to the traditional tunisian baskets called “koffa” that are now used for shopping after Tunisia banned plastic bags in March this year,” continued Kabeberi.
While America has been routinely besotted with literary tales of impossibly alluring French women adopting no-deprivation diets (French women don’t get fat by Mireille Guilliano, et all) an Italian transplant inspired by American wellness advocates has now opened a vegan Café in the entrails of gourmande Paris. Capece, who opened CM with her husband and business partner Xavier Barroux, was initially inspired by 2 American wellness totems: Gwyneth Paltrow and her book so we like to offer gluten free Italian focaccia stuffed with eggplant caviar for our sandwiches, Italian Panna Cotta, made with coconut milk and Agar Agar (an algae-based vegan gelatin), as well as revisited French dessert staples such as riz au lait (made with cooked rice, nut milk, nutmeg and organic maple syrup). Capece, who was initially surprised by the number of men and catering orders that came into the Café, follows her own daily diktats of yoga in the am, marine magnesium (helps with sleep and jetlag), seawater, colloidal silver (natural antibiotic), avocado toast, maca, spirulina and cashew nut milk.
