The Common Studios ‘Seedbomb’ project is an inventive way to spread eco-friendliness. Though it may seem that the whole world is going green, there isn’t much being done to save the planet on a daily basis aside from recycling.

The Common Studios ‘Seedbomb’ looks to alleviate this problem by planting (pun intended) [vending machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jaffa-cakes-installation) containing ‘seedbombs’ throughout various cities.

The handmade seedbombs are composed of [clay, compost and seeds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bough-pot); the bomb can be planted as is. Referred to as “[guerilla gardening](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/greenpublic),” the Common Studios ‘Seedbomb’ project is sure to make a worldwide difference.
