Thomas Dambo’s TROLLS: Save the Humans follows the journey of six young Trolls who are trying to reconnect us humans with nature. Each of the Trolls has a unique personality and something specific to teach us. To help get each Troll’s message to as many humans as possible we started a Troll of the Week series. This week we are featuring Kamma Can, the Trash Troll. 

Kamma Can has a creative mind and is always creating something beautiful out of unlikely objects, much like Thomas Dambo! When the young Trolls were discussing what they would teach the humans, Kamma Can thought about the ways humans could reuse the colorful eternity materials, a.k.a plastic. She noticed we use this material every day for clothing, toys, and storing food. She also knows that it’s not very good for the plants and animals, so her wonderful idea is to show us how to reuse these materials to create jewelry! Make sure to read all the fun facts below to learn more about our Trash Troll and her unique personality.

Fun Facts: 

  • Kamma Can is 14 feet and 7 inches tall, making her the second-tallest Troll here in the Garden
  • She wears a necklace made of large plastic items
  • Kamma Can connects with nature through her creativity
