what does paper/cardboard biodegrade to?

  Eventually, it degrades in the soil. Waxed products and tetra-packs do not, however. When I moved into my home in 2006, I found circa 1985 era milk cartons and juiceboxes buried in the garden. (i think they were used to start seeds) The milk carton was degrading, the juice box, not so much.

    it degrades to co2 wax, etc, remains underground, a bit like coal, or oil, long term.
