Cloth is biodegradable and is readily broken down if it is made from natural materials (cotton, linen, flax, silk). This makes it an environmentally friendly material.
Cloth made from plastics (polyester, nylon, etc) is not biodegradable, but, like plastic, takes hundreds of years to break down, and when it does, it is often just into tiny pieces of plastic the insects, animals and birds eat by mistake.
