Everyone has their unique ideas.

But not every idea works. However, we are not here to talk about the failed ideas even though that might be quite a funny list. We are actually here to pay attention to some clever solutions to problems that we didn’t even know existed. From countries using banana leaves rather than paper to cut down on pollution and plastic use to tables having a solar panel so you can charge your mobile for free, these are some ingenious ideas.

I mean I haven’t even started but I think every country should have solar panel-charged tables. Who wouldn’t want that? Especially in warmer countries where the sun is always overhead. I am quite sure that you would want all of these solutions to come to your country after you take a look at them. So just scroll below to take a look for yourself. I also assure you that you could use some of these ideas at home for yourself as well if you wanted.

#1 This is how things are packaged in Thailand. They use banana leaves rather than plastic.

#2 Every college campus should have solar panel-charged tables and ports for your mobile.

Not only do these provide shade but they also provide you charging for your mobile.

#3 How do you know when a parking space is available without going to it? This is how.

#4 Why is this table so weirdly long? So that wheelchair users can sit alongside their family and friends.

#5 This person changes the light to red to let their kids know when they are busy with work or in a meeting.

#6 This seems like a great idea but I feel like nobody actually handles a package perfectly.

#7 You can turn these benches into a table if you so choose.

#8 When your Hotel in Iceland really wants you to wake up during the Northern Lights.

#9 There is actually an arcade-type machine at the Baltimore airport where you can learn to do CPR.

#10 This railing actually has Braille on it so blind people can sort of ‘see’ what the view is like.

#11 This ramp is for ducks who don’t have gigantic legs.

#12 Every snack packaging should be like this.

Do you know how hard it is to reach those end snacks when you are close to finishing the snack? And how you have to put your whole hand in the spice-soaked packaging to get them? Well, not anymore.

#13 These extra-long scissors are for accurately cutting wrapping paper.

#14 Why does this lemon have a mesh net over it? So no seeds get on the food.

#15 This outdoor gym is for parents who want to keep an eye on their kids while they work out.

I am aware that many parents are not able to go to the gym because they just don’t have the time. What this gym does is that you can get in your daily exercise while your kid plays around. And you can see what they are doing all the while. Every area should do this in their parks. I guarantee that people will generally get more fitter this way, especially parents.

#16 Every pickles jar needs this.

#17 Some people ate the beeps a microwave makes so there should be a setting to turn off the sound.

#18 Every post office needs this guide.

#19 A drying area with a decline so that the water always ends up in the sink.

#20 A water fountain for all heights and even a dog.

#21 A picnic table for a big family where you can even sit at the ends.

#22 I want a spice rack like this in my home.

#23 When you don’t want to waste paper so you use laminated sheets and a wet-erase marker.

#24 Now you will know if you should wait till the end credits or now.

#25 Now, nobody can say that they didn’t see when the light turned red.

#26 When you don’t want your books to have a sticky residue from the sticker.

#27 Honestly this is ingenious.

Now, I can finally wear bracelets without me spending hours trying to clasp them. This is especially helpful for people with long nails.

#28 This is quite considerate.

#29 Now your kid won’t have the excuse to throw a tantrum when their legs get tired.

#30 There is a foot pedal for floor selection in this particular elevator.
