Article Icon 1 Message in a Bottle Links Generations After 26 Years

In 1998, fourth-grader Makenzie Morris wrote a letter as part of a class project, sealed it in a bottle, and tossed it into Ontario’s Lake St. Clair.

Twenty-six years later, the bottle was found by a kindergartner, River Vandenberg, who attends the same school Makenzie did.

River’s discovery led to the letter being read aloud in a classroom, where Makenzie’s daughter, Scarlet, recognized her mother’s maiden name.

The find brought Makenzie’s childhood memory full circle and reminded everyone of the enduring magic of simple gestures. Watch how the story unfolded here.

Meet the Geniuses Who Invented Plastic That Dissolves in Water

The world produces 450 million tons of plastic waste each year. Microplastics are seeping into our oceans and food. They even show up in our bodies. So you can imagine how revolutionary a new kind of plastic that completely dissolves in water can be. 

That’s exactly what Timeplast created. They patented a water-soluble, time-programmable plastic that vanishes without harming the environment. Major players like Nestle Waters North America are already partnering with Timeplast.
