Compostable Claims Decoded - What Actually Breaks Down at Home

Confused by "compostable" product claims? In this fourth instalment of our home composting series, Lucy and Archer decode the misleading world of eco-friendly labels. Learn the critical difference between home and industrial composting, why most "biodegradable" claims are meaningless, and which certifications actually matter for backyard bins. Discover what truly breaks down (uncoated paper, natural textiles, bamboo) versus what doesn't (most bioplastics and compostable coffee cups), plus hidden non-compostables lurking in seemingly natural products. Whether you're a seasoned composter or just getting started, this practical guide helps you make informed choices about truly compostable products while avoiding greenwashing traps. The episode includes a simple home test to verify compostability claims and recommendations for genuine plastic-free alternatives that return safely to the earth.
