Litter: These bags will not solve the problem of litter ¡V this is a behavioural problem. They are, however, a part of the management of its accumulation. Oxo-biodegradable bags will degrade within a few months when they are littered and they will disappear.
Compost: A study done by the Centre de Recherches Industrielles du Quebec (CRIQ) in 2002 found that organic wastes that were composted in oxo-biodegradable plastic bags made high quality compost. The bags disappeared and contributed to the organic content of the compost.
