HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO DECOMPOSE

It's not that we don't have the knowledge of environment pollution but
sometimes because of lack of awareness and responsibility we do the harm to
Nature.

There is a small list of things with the time it takes to decompose I
thought to share with you how long our act of foolishness will remain on
earth.
