I have heard from some that it takes around 1000 years to decompose. Hope this helps!

For a coke can (aluminium) it would take approx. 140 years to decompose. Aka. A Long Time…
It actually never decomposes.
Fiber glass may take a very long to decompose depending on its composition. If it is pure glass or made from sand then it may never decompose.
== == Glass never decomposes. It is made from molten sand.
You really should ask how long it takes for a milk carton to decompose. Milk bottles are made of glass, and they do not decompose, ever.
if the jar is glass, it wont decompose, sand does not decompose and if you heat up special sand that's glass.
50 TO 100 Years because of the metal inside of the ipod and that glass and plastic dont decompose
It takes about one to two million years for glass to decompose.
Glass doesnt decompose. It does take a long time to become a solid, but glass now will be glass in millions of years. Some types of glass can be made to decompose by adding chemicals similar to what etching does to glass. The term devitrication refers to the decompositition of glass but this is under forced chemical changes and not something that's going to happen in a natural state. Glass takes thousands of years to become a solid. Glass darkens as it ages as well. Lava glass or obsidian is glass found in nature and can be dated back to the beginning of the Earth, and is still glass. Glass never decomposes. It is made from molten sand.
Glass can take thousands of years to decompose in a landfill because it is not biodegradable and does not break down naturally. This makes it a significant environmental concern as it can remain in landfills for centuries. Recycling glass is a more sustainable option to reduce its environmental impact.
Glass does not decompose over time because it is not a biodegradable material. Instead, glass can break down into smaller pieces through physical processes like weathering and erosion, but it does not decompose like organic materials.
Glass bottles can take around 500 years to decompose in a land fill. This is the reason why glass is considered a recyclable element. Glass can be sterilized and re used and even melted down to make something else.
Glass, plastic and metal will never decompose anywhere.
It can take up to a million years for a glass bottle to decompose in a natural environment because glass is not biodegradable. However, glass can be recycled indefinitely, which is a more sustainable option to reduce its environmental impact.
