@Gargron Bio-Degradable plastics are good for the environment and can solve this problem. However Oxy-degradable plastics are also marketed and sold as bio degradable plastics.

Bio degradable plastics are created from biologically sourced materials. Oxy degradable plastics are regular plastics with additives which helps the plastic to degrade when exposed to sunlight and oxygen.

Unlike Bio degradable plastics, oxy degradable plastics exist as micro plastic after breaking.
