Best Answer

It takes depends on the type of plastic, but no one is certain how long any type of plastic takes to break down. Many early plastic toys from the 60's are beginning to break down significantly. However, clear water bottles like Dasini and most other brands use PET. PET is a relatively modern plastic so there is little information on its degradation. In any case it takes about 1 week for a water bottle to break down with recycling it .
