EARTHINE: A Medicine For Your Earth
Paolo Cappello - Italy

A simple idea: our Earth, as well as people, needs to be cured...and what can be a better cure than a medicine?

Earthine is the a "cure" for Earth's disease: in a medicine shaped box are contained 16 tree seeds in blister. Men, women, children, everybody can take care of earth with Earthine: seeds need just to be planted and soon will grow new trees that will help nature in beating pollution, deforestation and ozone hole.

Earthine seed boxes have a code (unique for every box) that allows people to connect at Earthine's web portal (www.earthine.com), and update it with informations about where and when they planted their seeds. There's also an area (automatically updated considering people's entries) where is calculated the quantity of new oxygen is being given to earth by Earthine seeds planted, and how deforestation and pollution are decreasing.

Earthine project using technology (internet) and nature (seeds) gives people the power and awareness to save Earth.

Earthine boxes are a cheap and innovative gadget that could be distributed for free in public places (for example schools) to make people (and in particular young people) more careful and awared of Earth's condition. People will be involved in first person in the challenge of saving our planet!

PROJECT DETAILS:
Earthine is a box of recycled paper that contains 16 tree seeds packed in blister. People just have to take a seed from blister, plant it and then wait for some time until a new tree will start growing...this will be the best cure for earth diseases but also it will be a cure for future mankind that will live in a better place!
