at least one first monomeric unit derived from biomass, wherein the first monomeric unit is derived from lignin and comprises a methacrylate; and

at least one second monomeric unit derived from biomass comprising an arylmethyl, a benzoin, or a phenacyl phototrigger.

2. The photodegradable polymer of claim 1 , further comprising at least one third monomeric unit, wherein the third monomeric unit is not derived from biomass.

3. The photodegradable polymer of claim 1 , wherein the first monomeric unit is also a photoinitiator.

4. The photodegradable polymer of claim 1 , wherein photocleavage of said polymer occurs from exposure to light from about 300 nm to about 450 nm in wavelength.

5. The photodegradable polymer of claim 1 , wherein the second monomeric unit comprises a phenacyl phototrigger.

6. The photodegradable polymer of claim 1 , wherein the first monomeric unit is derived from vanillin, ortho-vanillin, or iso-vanillin.
