Earth Loving Packing Material
Posted by easy eco blog
Macy’s is now using Earth loving packing material in their shipments. The material is made from pure corn and potato starch and breaks down in water within 9 minutes. You can also compost it. If put in the trash, it will dissolve in the land fill.
The postcard is FSC certified but uses only 30% recycled content.
