NOTICE: In the Durango, La Plata county area COMPOSTABLE PLASTC is not an Eco Friendly choice! They are WORSE for the Environment than normal plastic!
Bio plastics or compostable plastics do not compost in the tradicinal manor, they need extremely high heat at commercial composting facilities which are not available in La Plata county. So they end up in landfills, and like normal plastic, never compost. they put off more greenhouse gasses than traditional petroleum based plastic!
DO NOT be FOOLED by the term "CONPOSTABLE PLASTIC" with out the proper disposal they are worse than normal plastic!
Thanks to Carly Van Hof Thomson for bringing this to my attention!
