Out of curiosity, I ordered a new mowing line for our back mower. The manufacturer claims that it decomposes 100% naturally in a few months with contact to the soil and sunlight exposure. The product doesn't seem to have been on the market for long, but it would be a step in the right direction.
It is unacceptable that we scatter tons of micro and nano plastics (worldwide) into our soils every year, which are not degradable for centuries and accumulate in our soil.
The earth gave us fertile natural soils and waters that have been formed and reshaped over a very long period. With the beginning of modern times, mankind has started to pollute, seal and misuse them for its own purposes within few years.
