how is anything inorganic , if everything we have is from the earth itself and is therefore natural?
part 2 of the same question is why are somethings then non biodegradable?
In: Chemistry
Chemically, plastic is organic. Its molecules all come from fossil fuels, usually natural gas.
“Organic” as used in farming and food has a different meaning, it just means you don’t use synthetic pesticides (even though those pesticides are, chemically, organic compounds), and that you fertilize with blood and poop rather than inorganic salts like potassium nitrate and ammonium sulfate.
