Jamie Wiek is the designer of what you may call the greenest business card ever made. It looks like a regular business card, but if you deep it in water, a plant will grow from it in just a few days.

A smiley face is painted on one side of the card, and the plant will grow as the face’s green ‘hair’. The growing instructions are written on the other side (fill dish with water, dip card in), encouraging the one who received it to grow a miniaturized plant, a alfalfa or cress.

This will surely impress your contacts with the innovative idea and will put emphasis on your concern to the ecological aspect.

I know water looks cheap to you and that’s why most people waste it, but it’s expensive for the environment and that’s why we have to preserve it and use as less as we can, at least we shouldn’t waste it with no use.

Here you have 5 ways to stop wasting water:

1. Don’t spend hours in the shower with the water running.

2. Don’t throw away bottled water, better use it to water your plants.

3. If you have an aquarium, don’t change the water too often, use a special cleaner.

4. While brushing your teeth, stop the water running.

5. When you need to clean your car, go to ecological car washes or clean it with a dried car cleaning product.

Those are five most important ways to stop wasting water, but you can think at many more and really do it, because Earth’s future depends on this too.
