Non-biodegradable waste will NOT break down or at least NOT break down for many years. Examples of Non-biodegradable are plastics, metal and glass. Dangerous chemicals and toxins are also non-biodegradable, as are plastic grocery bags, plastic water bottles and other similar materials.
Non-biodegradable trash has been a growing concern to environmentalists, but now is becoming a concern to anyone wanting to embrace a more eco-friendly lifestyle; as world population grows so does our waste. It’s becoming increasingly important to understand what non-biodegradable waste is, as well as the effects that it has in on our planet.
Non-biodegradable trash that is discarded to be land filled will only accumulate. The most wide-reaching effect of non-biodegradable trash is the Pacific Garbage Patch; an area of the Pacific Ocean, which is heavily polluted with plastics and other waste. “The patch extends over a very wide area, with estimates ranging from an area the size of the state of Texas to one larger than the continental United States; however, the exact size is unknown.” It is estimated that unless consumers reduce current levels of non-biodegradable waste, the Pacific Garbage Patch will double in size in the next 10-20 years endangering the life of an infinite amount of marine animals.
All hope is not lost, and there are ways to prevent the accumulation of non-biodegradable waste. The most common one available to everyone is torecycle. Another solution is to replace non-biodegradable materials with ones specifically designed to biodegrade; and also supporting companies that are striving to help our environment. Above all “Say No To Plastic Bottles! – Say No To Plastic Bags!”

On the other hand Non-Biodegradable stuff can not be decomposed like glass, steel etc. They wont be melting in Nature no matter how strong are the organisms are. So it is advised that these product should be recycled so that they can be of use again
Non Bio D - that which
