Foam? Like old coffee cups and such? They never biodegrade. Unlike plastic that will take a thousand years foam will never biodegrade. In ten millions years of something is digging in the ground, it could find your cup that you left behind.
It takes 1000 years for it too biodegrade and that is if it is buried. :)
Foam that is thrown out typically ends up in landfills where it does not biodegrade easily. This can contribute to environmental pollution and harm wildlife if ingested. It is important to properly dispose of foam by recycling it whenever possible.
Yes, balloons do not biodegrade easily because they are typically made of synthetic materials like latex or plastic. These materials can take many years to break down in the environment.

It can take tin cans anywhere from 50 to 100-years to biodegrade. The decomposition is very dependent on the environment where the material is decomposing.
Yes. Velcro is made out of plastic, which, as far as we know, takes millions of years to biodegrade.
Cigarette butts can take 1-5 years to biodegrade in natural environments. However, the breakdown process may vary depending on factors such as the specific materials in the filter and the conditions of the environment where it is discarded.
