Compostic cling wrap is biodegradable, just as good as plastic

Good News Notes:

While that may sound impressive, the downside is that plastic wrap is difficult to recycle because it can clog machines and tends to end up in landfills, incinerators, or in the mouths of marine life. It can also contain harmful chemicals, which isn’t ideal for a product you’re wrapping around your food. However, plastic wrap is also convenient: Unlike aluminum foil, you can put it in the microwave without expecting sparks to start shooting. You don’t have to wash it and it doesn’t take up much room.

Instead, Compostic products are made of three biopolymers blended together. According to the company, it’s the world’s first 100% certified cling wrap that you can compost at home and it’ll break down in a home compost within 12-24 weeks….”
