Depends on conditions AND what type of paper:
cheap pulp paper (newspapers and some magazines) will normally last for only a few years, but under moldy (damp/warm) conditions can be lost in a few days or months.

however some high grade paper has lasted for centuries .
If you are not putting it in compost, you are making the world break the garbage down and it takes a long time. The longer it breaks down, the more pollution you create.

paper takes 2-3 weeks to rot!! :)
Paper can disintegrate in water anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, depending on the type of paper, its thickness, and the water conditions such as temperature and pH levels. It breaks down as the water weakens the bonds that hold the paper fibers together, eventually leading to disintegration.
It takes about 3 to 4 weeks to decompose a paper bag.
It can take anywhere from 2 weeks to several months for paper to biodegrade, depending on the environmental conditions it is exposed to. Factors such as moisture, temperature, and presence of microorganisms can influence the rate at which paper breaks down.
After about 6 months gasoline breaks down and is almost unusable.After about 6 months gasoline breaks down and is almost unusable.
The expiration date takes into account their packaging. you should be extra careful with anything acidic like tomatoes due to botulism.
It typically takes about 2-4 weeks for a paper towel to biodegrade, as they are made from natural fibers such as wood pulp which break down easily in the environment. Factors like moisture, temperature, and presence of microorganisms can speed up or slow down the biodegradation process.
Yes, it takes a long time for a tree to grow. Whole forests have been cut down through the centuries.
Baking paper typically takes around 2-4 weeks to biodegrade, as it is usually made from materials that break down relatively quickly. However, factors like moisture, temperature, and the specific composition of the paper can affect the degradation process.
It can take anywhere from 2 to 5 months for paper to disintegrate in soil, depending on factors such as the type of paper, moisture levels, and presence of microorganisms that aid in decomposition. However, some types of paper, such as glossy or coated paper, may take longer to break down.
