Biodegradable dental floss is much better
Why stop there, biodegradable everything is better, unless you explicitly need it to not biodegrade
Not everything can be or needs to be biodegradable.
We don't need biodegradable houses. The wires we use in all of our electronics can't be biodegradable.
But- we can find ways to recycle those materials.
So I would say that the thing to say is that biodegradable or recyclable everything is usually better. Even then, though, some things don't fit those categories. There are all sorts of medical things that get implanted in human bodies (stents, for example) that can't be biodegradable and also won't be recycled unless we really change the way we think of our dead relatives.
Yeah, completely agree
In the interest of being terse, I was letting "unless you explicitly need it not to biodegrade" do a lot of the heavy lifting for those particular cases.
Well paper straws could be a bit more sturdy.
I've got a set of metal ones that are pretty good!
