A Homeowner’s Guide to Biodegradable Home Improvement Options Before you rush to the big box store for building materials, consider using biodegradable options for your walls, floors and outdoor surfaces. What does biodegradable mean? If something is biodegradable, given the right conditions and presence of microorganisms, fungi, or bacteria, it will eventually break down and blend back in with the earth. [The bad news is that while light, water and bacteria encourage biodegradability, most landfills are compacted so tightly, and thus do not let much air in. As such, any biodegradation that does take place does so very slowly, though much sooner than products that are not biodegradable.] To ensure the materials you buy are truly biodegradable, ask the manufacturer if chemicals were part of the manufacturing process or check packaging; knowledgeable clerks may also be a godsend in this area.
