Biodegradable shopping bags Biodegradable bags decomposes when its exposed to the sun, air or any huminuty substance. This Biodegradable bags are used as an alternative for shopping bags. However, they do not freelly decompose in a preserved landfill and can be a cause of a possible contaminant to plastic recycling operations. For example Natur-Tec a biodegardeable and compostable trash bag have the advatage to use it more than once instead of paper bags that can easily be thrown away with one single use. Hazard in the animal species Approximately over 200 million tones of non-degradable plastics are manufactured around the world.Unfavorable to mankind by nature, these plastics turn toxic when not needed. Plastics dumped into sea are highly toxic and endanger most of the sea species. Because of their toxic nature, lands become highly polluted and grow hazardous. They also increase global warming. The only solution to all these harms lies in using biodegradable plastics. These plastics are completely degradable and prevent the soil from getting polluted. Some of the biodegradable plastics are degradable even in sea water helpful for the sea animals. They reduce pollution on land and water. Some of the useful applications of these plastics are carry-out bags, packaging films, trash bags. The Biodegradable bags can be replaced instead of the papers that are used in coated paper cups, trays and other materials. []

Biodegradable Packing and Packaging Material Biodegradable packing and packaging material are just as effective as many of the plastic products used to ship items. The difference is that they will degrade or disintegrate over time rather than be released in the environment for months or years at a time. With biodegradable packaging materials, they will dissolve over time and not have a negative impact on animal habitats and the environment. Biodegradable packing and packaging are plant-based, that they are made up of renewable resources. They are created from nature, which means they decompose completely in weeks or months.
