The Arusha Cleaner: Paper Bag Waste to Souvenir Dolls.

Ramadhani "The Arusha Cleaner" Juma is a guy in Arusha, Tanzania, who got the brilliant idea of collecting plastic bag that lying around the city as garbage, making them into puppets, and selling them to tourists!

A few years ago i decided that I wanted to do something about that. In 2002 I started to collect plastic waste bags to make puppets out of them. In that way I helped keep the environment clean, and provided a living for my family. They help me with the sewing of the puppets.
