How did we make plastic that isn’t biodegradable and is so bad for the planet, out of materials only found on Earth?

Question

I just wondered how we made these sorts of things when everything on Earth works together and naturally decomposes.

It’s technically not bad for the planet and everything decomposes. It’s just not on the timeline that’s human/life friendly. When we say it’s bad for earth what we really mean is it will be harmful to humans and our current way of life.
