Environmentally friendly degradable fibers and a preparing method thereof are disclosed and relate to the field of degradable fibers. Raw materials of the fibers include, by weight, 80-100 parts of polylactic acid, 20-30 parts of straw fibers, 10-18 parts of tert-butyl peroxyacetate, 5-12 parts of an antibacterial agent, 3-10 parts of an isocyanate compatilizer, 6-15 parts of acetic anhydride, 3-8parts of tert-butyl alcohol, 12-25 parts of glycerol, 2-6 parts of an antioxidant and 0.2-1.5 parts of a light stabilizer. The antibacterial agent includes copper citrate, copper rosinate, sodium silicate, nanometer silica and attapulgite. The method includes a step of preparing the antibacterial agent, a mixing and fusing step, and a granulation and spinning step. The raw materials of the degradable fibers are safe and nontoxic, and a process is simple and reasonable. The degradable fibers have excellent resilience, crease resistance, antibacterial performance, heat insulating ability and degradability and are suitable fabrics of down jackets and other clothes.
