How long does it take for one plastic water bottle to degrade in a landfill?
Answer Up to 1,000 years
Of course, different types of plastic degrade at different speeds, and while the average is 450 years, some bottles take up to 1,000 years to decompose in a landfill! As if that wasn't alarming enough, 90% of plastic bottles aren't even recycled!
