Litter Decomposition Game

How Long Does it Take to Decompose?

Make your own game! Bergen County made a game based upon how long it takes various items to decompose in the environment. Sayreville followed with their version. It’s a great way to interact with residents at public events.

See the info graphic “Marine Debris from Land and Sea” (shown below) for information on decomposition times. Also, this Word file contains a list of decomposition times.
