When looking at rubbish or trash it normally falls into two
different categories, which are either biodegradable or non-biodegradable. So
what is the difference? Biodegradable is when waste will eventually break down
and become part of the soil and earth. This is normally things such as paper
and food scraps the will decompose. Non – biodegradable waste is completely the
opposite, it’s when the waste will not break down or it won’t break down for many
years. Some examples of Non-biodegradable products are metals, glass and
plastics.

As we become more technologically advanced as a society we are
able to produce new materials that can be more eco friendly and more
biodegradable. If this was done to products such as coffee cups the environment
will become that much better off.
There are thousands of coffees bought in just Melbourne alone each day; the amount of coffee cups that would be thrown away would be tremendous. If each coffee cup was degradable the pollution that would impact the environment would be minimized significantly as there are thousands of cups being thrown out each day.
