18.In an effort to discourage people from using plastics,scientists have been hard at work inventing alternative packaging products.The idea of using seaweed(海草) to make eco-friendly water bottles has been around for a few years.Recently,Ari Jonsson took his invention-a water bottle made from red seaweed-to show off at a festival.The bottles will only hold their shape as long as they are filled.As soon as these bottles are empty they will begin to break down,though they would be perfectly safe to eat.Ari Jonsson's bottles are a step closer to a widely used alternative to the current plastic ones.
The eatable water container is not the only product to add to our image of the future.Narayana Pessapaty has also created eatable spoons.After the success of his spoons,Mr.Pessapaty is ready to expand and introduce forks and chopsticks to his menu.His aim is to largely reduce the amount of plastic waste,which is a huge problem for waste sites all over the world,It is a product that may take up t0 500 years to break down,and recycling companies worldwide are struggling to deal with it.
Aside from the obvious benefits to the environment,this new packaging is also cheap to produce and therefore cheap to buy.Even better is the fact that similar eatable cutlery can be made at home,possibly a science project for children or just fun with friends.Why not experiment and create your own recipes?
