Because petroleum-based plastics like PET don't decompose the same way organic material does. Wood, grass and food scraps undergo a process known as biodegradation when they're buried, which is a fancy way of saying they're transformed by bacteria in the soil into other useful compounds.

Unlike plastic, cartonlina is biodegrable while plastic is non-biodegrable. Biodegrable materials are easy to decompose and takes less time compared to the nonbiodegrable materials, especially plastic. That is why we must encourage others to reuse recycle in order to reduce our waste protect Mother Nature.
