Watch the video of how they came up with an idea of making biodegradable coffee cups embedded with seeds that can grow trees and flowers when planted. Check out the article we found over at BoredPanda.
Here’s an amazing idea that really proves to you that anything is possible with the right approach. A small team based in California, USA that goes by the name of Reduce. Reuse. Grow. has devised an ingenious new type of coffee cup with seeds inside the walls. You can plant the cup when you are done and the seeds grow.
Some thought has clearly gone into this project: One thing that is clever about this cup is that the seeds included in the cups will be local to the region in which the cups are sold, so that the plants grown are appropriate for the local ecosystem.
Billions of beverage containers are discarded each year and we’ve all seen pictures of the terrible mess we are making. So this project – and others like it – are an urgent priority.
Ok here’s the full report on the new Biodegradable Coffee Cups Embedded With Seeds Grow Into Trees When Thrown Away:
A creative company in California called Reduce. Reuse. Grow has designed a coffee cup that is not only biodegradable, but even has seeds in its walls so that it can be planted and grown!
The cups, which are currently part of a Kickstarter campaign, will have seeds embedded in their walls based on their locations. Participating stores will encourage people to plant the cups themselves or to return them to be planted by the company.
