Biodegradable on what time frame? Isn't everything biodegradable given enough time? Is there an official definition on what time frame of biodegradability allows something to be legally declared 'biodegradable'? (Looking into this now, fascinating!)
If there's no reasonable legal definition of biodegradable, then isn't that label useless?
