Wealthy Humpty is an innovated plant pot made of eggshells. Eggs are most commonly consumed foods in our daily life; rich in protein and provide many health benefits but eggshells are often discarded as waste and thrown into the trash. However, they are not entirely useless, as they can be reused or recycled in various beneficial ways. we developed a biodegradable pot as a sustainable solution. Malaysia generates approximately 39,000 to 40,000 tonnes of solid waste per day. Over 80% of waste ending up in landfills, many are expected to reach capacity by 2050.
