The next time you eat an apple, don’t throw the seed too fast. You might miss a good occasion to show off your green thumb. Here’s the secret of your future talent: Bios, a biodegradable urn that comes with all the nutritious ingredients a seed needs to grow into a tree.
So it is a bit of romantic treehugger justice to put your seed on top of the urn and recover the missing gap with the surrounding soil. The next steps? Cut the urn paper package, dig a 20-something centimeter hole, and bury the discovered urn material in it.
CIRE, the Catalonia, Spain-based Center for Initiatives and Economical reinsertion, create the device on a sharing basis. So it’s not surprising that, one unfolded, the back side of the urn package is a postcard. Maybe your mother or your girlfriend ― especially your girlfriend ― would be delighted to learn that you thought about her while eating your apple.
