Toilet paper is based on cellulose, usually taken from wood, and is easily degradable. Toilet paper can even be partially dissolved in water immediately. Toilet paper sheets degrade after 3-4 months of being buried in the soil, and even faster when wet. Toilet paper can cause pollution to the environment, from the raw materials it is produced from and the pollutants produced during the production process, and the main raw material for toilet paper comes from wood, and the large amount of harvesting can also damage the environment.

It mainly depends on materials, but now environmental protection is advocated, so regular businesses use degradable materials, but the degradation time will be longer.
