polythene is a kind of polymer. It cant be decomposed. If u opt for recycle process for the polythene it will emit only poisoneous gases and resultant product will be only polythene.
Now, u can use this polythene for making roads. The use of polythene in roads strenghtens the quality of road. though it cant be recycled but now u can use it in roads coaltar.
Because they are more expensive and not avalible to some people!
One can find biodegradable plastic bags in store at Sainsburys, Tesco, Asda, Morrisons, Wilkinsons, Boots, Marks & Spencer and many more UK based supermarkets.
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
Plastic bags are made out of non-biodegradable substance.(not organic)Because they are durable they do not rot. Scientist believe that it would take up to 1,000 years to break down. In that time plastic bags separate into smaller toxic particles that contaminates the soil and even waterways. Even if we try to burn them, it pollutes the atmosphere Each year, an estimated 500 billion to 1 trillion plastic bags are made worldwide. That means that 1 million plastic bags are made each minute, but then billions end up as litter each year. Making plastic bags can lead to exhaustion of oil, because to make a lot of plastic bags, we need a lot of oil. If we reduce oil we could save much more oil. You can actually drive about 460 meters with the oil which is used for only one plastic bag. Plastic bags even kill a lot of marine animals. Plastic bags gets blown into the ocean and floats around like a jelly-fish. A lot of sea-creatures choke and die for mistaking them as their food. Each year, thousands of sea turtles choke on plastic bags after mistaking them for jellyfish, their favourite food. Even other sea critters like sea lions and dolphins have also been found with their stomachs filled with plastic bags!
cows use more tin foil than plastic bags.

Brown paper bags are more eco-friendly because they are often made of biodegradable paper and will biodegrade much faster than clear plastic shopping bags.

Plastic bags can support more weight but paper bags can support more items
Advantages: Paper bags are biodegradable, recyclable, and reusable. They are generally considered more environmentally friendly than plastic bags. Disadvantages: Paper bags are not as durable as plastic bags and can tear easily when carrying heavy items. They are also more expensive to produce than plastic bags.
Yes. They are made of polytethylene and 100% recycled (usually used to make park benches and other imitation-wood products). This is the advantage of recycling plastic bags instead of buying biodegradable, as biodegradable bags can only be composted (non-recyclable).They can be recycled. However you would have to empty the trash they hold into the trash can for pick up, then throw the Hefty or Glad bag into your recycling bin. A better choices would be to buy trash bags that are 100% biodegradable. The biodegradable bags begin to break down in 90 days. Regular plastic garbage bags like Hefty or Glad take 1,000 years or more to start to break down.
Newspaper. Its not plastic because plastic is not biodegradable.

Paper is a hundred percent biodegradable. Plastic is not biodegradable. We should use easily biodegradable materials more often, such as paper, wood, cloth, and the like.
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.
