Solution

The correct option is C Aluminium cans

Non-biodegradable materials are not capable of being decomposed by bacteria or other living organisms.
Materials like wood, cotton cloth and paper are obtained from nature and can decompose using biological processes. But aluminium cans decompose in roughly 100 years. Hence, they get accumulated in landfills and cause pollution.
