The concept behind this "calendar" is ultimately to remind its user of extinction. Each week, they would pop an edible water bottle to water the succulent and see the revealed images of extinct plants behind it, as well as more on the back of the calendar. This action would act as a reminder of the importance of taking care of plants/the earth. Once all the water bottles provided are used, its user would have to decide whether to keep watering the plant or let it go extinct like all the others.

Accordion booklet containing the scientific names of all the plants on the calendar along with the year they were last assessed by the IUCN Red List.
