Seedbomb is a project developed by Jin-wook Hwang. The seeds and artificial soil are kept in a biogradable plastic capsule. When launching into the ground, the artificial soil can provide moisture and nutritive elements for plants to grow.

More notes about seedbomb by creator:

Seedbomb is a non-military bomb that protects earth from worsening desertification and lessens sandstorms. After The 2nd world war, Gale Halvorson, an American pilot, dropped candies in the name of hope for children in berlin. The seedbomb is the bomb of hope like the candies of Gale Halvorson. When a Seedbomb is released from an airplane, Seedbomb is disassembled in the air and Seed capsules inside of the bomb spread out widely and fall on the ground.
