This biodegradable water bottle breaks down when it’s empty

Your water bottle could one day start to biodegrade the moment you finish drinking, if a visionary piece of design becomes reality.

The brainchild of Icelandic product design student Ari Jónsson, the bottle holds its shape until you’ve drained it. As soon as it’s empty, the bottle will start to decompose.

As he argued in Dezeen Magazine: "Why are we using materials that take hundreds of years to break down in nature to drink from once and then throw away?"
