RE:RE:Rumor

Myth busting: compostable and degradable plastics

It’s time for some myth busting. You might be surprised to find out what happens to these items after your customers are done with them.

Fact 1

Plastic that is labeled or described as compostable, degradable (example: biodegradable, oxodegradable, photodegradable), bioplastic, or made from plants or other biological materials:

Is not accepted in the City Green Bin organics program
Contaminates existing composting and recycling streams
Is not approved for composting under provincial regulation
Is not designed to biodegrade if littered in the natural environment

Fact 2

Plastic that is labeled or described as compostable or degradable is also not accepted in Recycle BC’s residential recycling program .

Fact 3

As contaminants, plastics that are labeled or described as compostable, degradable, or made from plants are most likely to be removed from composting and recycling streams and then disposed to landfill or incinerator.

I came upon an article that points out this issue. This could be huge for Good Natured.
