Description
This project, EarthPot, introduces a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to disposable plastic pots using biodegradable bioplastic and origami techniques. Designed to simplify planting, the pot allows users to place it directly into the soil, where it decomposes naturally, enriching the soil with nutrients. Additives like eggshells are included to supply calcium and other minerals essential for healthy soil and plant growth. The pot's origami-inspired construction eliminates the need for adhesives, ensuring it is entirely biodegradable and environmentally friendly. Its innovative design reduces waste, enhances functionality, and promotes a sustainable lifecycle by integrating packaging with nature's processes. EarthPot demonstrates a commitment to sustainable packaging solutions that respect the environment while offering a practical, waste-free alternative for plant lovers and gardeners.
