Greenwash anyone?
Cleanomic: “Compostable” bags can be composted “at home and commercial facilities”. How many of you will compost these at home? Probably some, but most will rely on commercial facilities. Huh, you probably don’t have one in your state. So do you locate one in the U.S. & mail your used bags to them? No, you throw them in the trash can where they will compost in the landfill. But … NOTHING COMPOSTS OR BIODEGRADES IN A LANDFILL because the conditions aren’t right!! I couldn’t find the composition of Cleanomic bags, but if they’re part/all plastic … well, plastic is plastic, and plastic can biodegrade into smaller pieces of plastic over hundreds of years. I appreciate the desire to use greener products, the planet NEEDS green products. But unless you have a compost area in your home or yard these bags will go to the landfill for forever. Be wary of the phrase eco-safe, or similar, until U.S. industry builds more recycling facilities - which they won’t readily do because fossil fuels keep capitalism alive!! Cha-ching$$$ Plastic never disappears. All the plastic ever made is still with us.
