From what I’ve read PLA is only biodegradable under very specific conditions. I looked into it and you have to send it to a recycling center designed for PLA and its expensive to do so. I would assume microplastics would still be present too. Even though it can be sourced from plant matter its still plastic.

PLA is digestible, it doesn’t pose a microplastic threat. If it gets into you, it’ll become a part of your poop.
