When Biodegradable Garbage Bags first arrived on the scene, they were hailed as the scientific breakthrough that would cure all the problems that plastic can create. The idea of a plastic that would behave and break down just like a natural material seemed too good to be true. Was it? We took a look at the facts and found out.

Biodegradable Clothes Bags, which are also made from petrochemicals, are manufactured differently so that they can begin to break down quickly in the presence of air and sunshine. You might see this plastic labeled as photodegradable or oxy degradable.

Bioplastic is made from organic, renewable sources, such as vegetable oils, corn, and grains.

“Returning to nature” is a pretty poetic idea, but is that actually what happens when Biodegradable Pet Poop Bags arrive at the landfill? The problem with the FTC guidelines is that some extremely important factors are completely left out.

First of all, the “reasonably short period of time” is not defined. It could mean any amount of time from a week to several years.on greenhouse gas emissions. This means that even if Biodegradable Roll Draw Tape Bag did break down in this environment, the consequences would be far from rosy. As it degrades, it releases two greenhouse gasses: methane and carbon dioxide, which both contribute hugely to global warming. Many traditional petrochemical-based biodegradable plastics also leave behind toxic metals and traces which can contribute to soil and water pollution.Finally, even relatively friendly bioplastics have their drawbacks: arguably, the land and resources and carbon output used to grow corn and other materials for bioplastic might be better used growing actual food. The genetically modified crops used for the production of bioplastic and the necessary chemical fertilizer and pesticides have their own consequences for the environment. On a very practical level, these Biodegradable Loop Die Cut Handle Bags are often not as strong as petrochemical-based bags, which means that they may require double-bagging. Using more plastic instead of less isn’t a sustainable solution.Truly compostable bags can also make a big difference. If your city offers a commercial composting facility, using these Biodegradable Mailing Bags for your food and yard waste is a great option which may encourage more composting: a pure win for the environment. For do-it-yourselfers with a backyard compost bin, some bags are also suitable for home-composting, but check the label carefully.

 choose Biodegradable Vegetable and Fruits Bags, which reuse plastic that’s already here. As science and technology continue to progress, the question of whether biodegradable plastic is a net win for the environment will hopefully become more clear. For now, staying educated and thoughtful about our choices is the first step.

When you are in the store, remember that there is a difference between biodegradable and oxo-biodegradable. Both affect the environment in different ways. Biodegradable products are actually environmentally safe and typically reduce the pollution. Where as oxo-biodegradable products may actually cause further pollution. There are a lot of products, which are biodegradable that can be bought at the store. These include Garbage Bags, straws, and even shoes & watches!

The difference between oxo-biodegradable and compostable is really subtle. While compostable Shopping Bags decompose completely, the oxo-biodegradable bags leave small particles behind as they decompose, and those particles can be problematic (often made from petroleum products). It’s not because we don’t see something that it is not polluting
