Solution

The correct option is C Plastic does not decompose easily.
Materials made of plastic have a very long lifespan. When they are thrown away, their decomposition doesn't occur even after hundreds of years. Thus, they are classified as non-biodegradable waste.
The accumulation of plastic waste contributes to the pollution of the environment which is a major concern these days.
