Plastic Unsustainability
What is Biodegradable Packaging and Why is It Different to Plastic?
Biodegradable material can degrade easily and quickly without emitting harmful toxins into the environment. These materials are made from biopolymers extracted from living organisms, primarily plants. Plastic is efficient in keeping out microbes, but plastic waste has been building up in landfills and oceans worldwide, making it unsustainable.
