11．Bottled water is a booming industry in New Zealand，but it's terrible for the environment-each bottle thrown away adding to the 190，000tons of plastic New Zealanders throw into landfills each year．
But now one company has created water storage that they hope will prove to be just as convenient as a plastic bottle-but contains no actual plastic．
Skipping Rock Labs make Oohos，flexible membranes filled with water that are constructed using a seaweed extract-meaning they，re totally edible and biodegradable，wrapping and all．
There aren't any known side effects from digesting the membranes，which are tasteless-though Ooho!says flavors can be added to make them more appetizing．
The company took to crowdfunding site CrowdCube with the idea，and it has since gone viral-with more than 900investors bagging them A£751，700 to develop and launch the Ooho!balls （ $1.35million）．
Skipping Rock Labs create the balls by dipping ice into brown algae and calcium chloride，with the membrane taking shape around the ice-and while that may sound complicated，the company says it，s more cost-effective than producing a plastic bottle．
A layer atop the membrane can be peeled off just before drinking，for hygiene purposes．Skipping Rock Labs are hoping their new product takes off-and that it starts to put a dent into the plastic packaging industry．
