The Life Box by Paul Stemets is a cardboard box that has seeds embedded within the cardboard. Once you're finished using the Life Box, just chuck it in the backyard to grow a tree.
The amazing Life Box does not cost extra to ship, and the seeds within the box have been approved by the Department of Agriculture in both the US and Canada. If that wasn't enough to sell you on the amazing Life Box, Al Gore has backed it as well!
