  For all of our environmental concerns, more and more cities are applying large-scale composting programs. This shift is good for our landfills. As composting becomes more popular, these companies are also trying to sell or claim a surge in paper products that people might associate with compostable, such as "plant-based" or "biodegradable." Some cups are made from corn and are called bio-paper cups, such as PLA coated paper cups.

  Are PLA coated paper cups compostable?
  How about something like a biodegradable paper cup? They look compostable and recyclable, don't they? Well, it turns out that biodegradable paper cups can only hold beverages because they are lined with plastic. Do ultra-thin layers of plastic make them uncompostable? Not long for hot tea or cold coffee, we used to rely on plastic cups. But not anymore, because there are now biodegradable paper cups that are both eco-friendly and affordable. By consciously choosing green products, we make a positive contribution to a healthy and clean world.
  There are many companies today that use PLA bio-paper cups, which are made from fermented vegetable starch from 100% renewable resources. While it retains the strength of plastic, it is easily compostable and is aptly called bioplastic. PLA paper cups, the best choice for cups, can hold the hottest beverages and can also be frozen.
  The new paper cups meet Food Standards Agency guidelines and are clean, non-toxic and sanitized. Plus, since these cups are compostable, they just help get rid of the trash.

  Plus, it's easier for cheering people to compost if they can take the PLA paper cups and milk cartons they're already throwing away and use it to store compost. But there are also concerns that plastic cups will eventually pollute the environment. Now, we're talking about a relatively small amount of plastic. But places like Ecocycle have taken the time to analyze the future of our composting, and they worry that if we don't get the right policies in place now, we'll end up with a pile of plastic in our soil later.
  PLA paper cups are oil resistant, safe and waterproof, and can also be used in thermal applications.
