There are around 4 billion toothbrushes dumped in landfills and oceans each year. Plastic toothbrushes take around a thousand years to degrade but they will never fully biodegrade… They’ll just degrade into smaller microplastics which are dangerous to us and our wildlife. Due to this, over 100,000 marine mammals and a million seabirds are killed off annually. It is very hard to burn plastic and when they do get burnt, they end up releasing more hazardous chemicals. Huli brushes are the best alternative to regular plastic toothbrushes as they are made from bamboo, a natural cellulose fiber, the handles are biodegradable, environmentally sustainable, and do not pollute the environment.
