Technologies are generally described for proof of degradation for biodegradable materials through use of tags in items containing biodegradable materials. In order to incentivize actual degradation based recycling of biodegradable products, identification tags or trackers may be embedded into the biodegradable portion of such products. Tags may be selected such that a non-degradation destruction of the product would destroy the tags as well. At a recycling facility, information associated with the products may be obtained from the tags by separating the tags during degradation or collecting the tags themselves and providing the information or the tags to an entity such as the manufacturer, a government entity, or the like. |
