Plastics and styrofoam products will never breakdown in our lifetime.
In October 2020, the Government of Canada released a Science assessment of plastic pollution, noting that plastic was polluting rivers, lakes and oceans as well as harming wildlife and generating microplastics in drinking water sources. Moving quickly, they then proposed a goal of zero plastic waste by 2030 and the Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) passed a federal single-use plastics ban to help achieve that goal.
