i dont know but i just felt like writing hope you find ur answer kisses mwah
Scientists estimate that it takes upwards of 500 years for a plastic bag to decompose, filling up landfills at an alarming pace. Plastic bags are also dangerous to animals and sea creatures who accidentally ingest them.
No, plastic bags cannot be turned into compost in a backyard pile but yes, compostable plastic bags can be composted in a commercial or industrial composting facility.Specifically, compostable plastic bags are a recent phenomenon. They are popular with environmentally conscious citizens who do not have access to reusable bags. That they are compostable refers to their decomposition with the help of large-scale commercial and industrial processes, not to their compostability in a homeowner's backyard pile.
Plastic bags are highly non biodegradable...so they do not decompose even after a hundered years..so it is better to recycle them and use them again without manufacturing more
yes all plastic bags can be recycledActually the so called "green" plastic bags designed to decompose cannot be recycled. Even one mixed in with a batch of ordinary bags being recycled can ruin it all.
we can destroy plastic bags by recycling.
Yes.
The bags don't decompose in the garbage.
Because they are strong and reliable and do not decompose like corn starch bags.
Does paper and plastic bags decompose at the same rate i think by insects that are in the grond. They eat through it but when it is like other dead insects in the ground they eat through it like humans eat through food. But i know it takes longer than a day for paper bags to be decompose and it takes 500 years for plastic bags to be decompose.
Yes plastic do decompose. But they will take about 500 to do so. So we don't encourage to use plastic bags when we purchase our items in the supermarket. A better choice is to bring recycling bag , a recycling bag takes only a few years to decompose
Plastic bags, despite critical claims by ecological groups, do decompose. Originally the polyethylene in plastic grocery and garbage bags took a very long time to decompose (as other plastic items still do). However, the addition of various substances to the bags now causes the material to fragment, and it is then slowly broken down by natural processes. Early additives required sunlight (UV), but heat and moisture are now key to the degrading process.

Non biodegradble does not decompose or decayed easily. Example the plastic bags used in the groceries nowadays, it will take more than 200 years to decompose naturally. So it is highly recommended to use paper bags instead.
no plastic does not decompose
Some substitutes for plastic are starch from corn or wheat, corn syrup, ad even potatos.
