What are the problems with disposing of waste plastics in landfill sites?

Disposing of waste plastics in landfill sites presents several problems, including long decomposition times that can stretch from hundreds to thousands of years, leading to persistent environmental pollution. Plastics can leach harmful chemicals into the soil and groundwater, posing risks to ecosystems and human health. Additionally, landfill space is limited, and as plastic waste accumulates, it contributes to the growing waste crisis, exacerbating climate change through methane emissions from organic waste decomposing in the same sites. Finally, the visual and physical presence of plastics in landfills can detract from land use and contribute to landscape degradation.

What are degradable plastics?

Degradable plasticsA number of UK retailers have recently introduced degradable carrier bags. These bags are made from plastic which degrades under certain conditions or after a predetermined length of time. There are two types of degradable plastic: bio-degradable plastics, which contain a small percentage of non oil-based material, such as corn starch; and photodegradable plastics, which will break down when exposed to sunlight.Degradable plastics are already being used successfully in Austria and Sweden, where McDonalds has been using bio-degradable cutlery for three years. This enables all catering waste to be composted without segregation. Carriers for packs of beer cans are now being manufactured in a plastic which photo-degrades in six weeks. There is also potential to use such plastics in non-packaging applications such as computer or car components.There are a number of concerns over the use of degradable plastics. First, these plastics will only degrade if disposed of in appropriate conditions. For example, a photodegradable plastic product will not degrade if it is buried in a landfill site where there is no light. Second, they may cause an increase in emissions of the greenhouse gas methane, as methane is released when materials biodegrade anaerobically. Third, the mixture of degradable and non-degradable plastics may complicate plastics sorting systems. Last but not least, the use of these materials may lead to an increase in plastics waste and litter if people believe that discarded plastics will simply disappear.
