micro-organisms cannot break them down, so they may last for many years in rubbish dumps. However, it is possible to include chemicals that cause the polymer to break down more quickly. Carrier bags and refuse bags made from such degradable polymers are already available.

Are there any environmental problems caused by bromine?

Yes, bromine can contribute to several environmental problems. It is a toxic and corrosive substance that can harm aquatic life when released into water bodies, leading to bioaccumulation in the food chain.
