The United States military wants to design bullets that make the Earth a better place. The government aims to create new biodegradable rounds that hold both gunpowder and seeds.
The shell casings that are currently used can pollute soil and water. So, the idea is to replace those bullets with an eco-friendly alternative that would actually grow flowers and plants that enrich the spoil and feed wildlife. The Department of Defense is currently looking to award grants to businesses that can design such a device.
So, we killed the enemy...and, as an added bonus, a field of pretty flowers will be sprouting up in their place...
