Impactful Invention – Edible Water Bottle

The problem of single use plastics used to package water bottles is a problem that the world has been dealing with for a long time. However, London based startup seems to have come up with a solution to this problem. They have introduced water pouches which are made out of seaweed and plant extract. This therefore allows you to either eat or compost the container in which the water/liquid is stored in.

These edible water bottles are packaged in small pouches, full of liquid inside, and to consume, the entire packet can just be eaten. This further brings great convenience to drinking water as it can be consumed with ease and speed.
