It has long been vital for communication, education, and documentation, serving as a means to preserve knowledge. However, it also contributes significantly to waste, leading to environmental pollution and health hazards. This study aims to address this issue by exploring plantable seed paper, made from recycled waste paper pulp with embedded seeds. As the paper decomposes in soil, the seeds germinate, offering a sustainable alternative to conventional paper products. To support this research, the study employs observational methods to gather data. The researchers analyzed the data using the One-Way ANOVA Test. The results suggest that the water absorption and tensile strength of plantable seed paper do not differ significantly from commercially available paper. Similarly, the germination rates of the plantable paper, both indoors and outdoors, show no significant difference." --Abstract  aAdolescent   xJunrel CapunoyJunior High SchoolzResearch  aText in English   aPlantable seed paper.  aPlantable paper.   aSweet basil.   aSeeds.  aWaste paper.   aOcimum basilicum.   aLibrando, Seysha Kashie R., eauthor.   aLimpag, Mikaela Estelle L., eauthor.   aPaqueo, Courtney Kate L., eauthor.
