Popis

The Glasgow Science Centre and Scottish Power developed this biomimicry inspired resource focusing on reducing plastic waste. The eco-friendly water bottle uses alginate, from brown seaweed. The gel bubble that holds the water needs to display several of the properties of the seaweed, in that it should be strong, flexible, hold water, and be able to be eaten or biodegrade under the right conditions. This is an example of biomimicry, where nature has inspired a new invention.

The Eco-Friendly Water Bottle resource includes teacher and student instructions, PowerPoint slides and an accompanying video demonstration of how the experiment should be undertaken. Students experience creating alginate bubbles using a process called spherification, which is used by chefs to make tea bubbles and imitation caviar.


Jak používat tento zdroj

The Eco-Friendly Water Bottle briefly introduces biomimicry with examples of how society has learned from nature’s innovative solutions to today’s challenges. This is an opportunity for teachers and students to share their knowledge of biomimicry and possible other nature inspired solutions to other problems.

The Eco-Friendly Water Bottle resource provides teachers and students the experience of creating their own nature-inspired solution to reducing plastic waste. This experience will promote students’ scientific curiosity and motivation to address other local challenges through scientific means.
