| Hello Kitty |
Hello Kitty, the ubiquitous Japanese icon, is facing some competition from a plastic bag.
Charles Ward, an English transplant in Japan, calls it Fukuro-Chan, and it’s much more lovable than you might imagine.
The Ward-created character looks like a colorless, pantless SpongeBob, and tells kids about ways to waste less, as in not using plastic bags, reusing, recycling and the like.
