#Repost @zerowaste_munster (@get_repost) ・・・ Please spread the word: there is plastic in teabags. #Reposting from @treadingmyownpath : ・・・ I do so hate to be the bearer of bad news😬. But did you realise that there's (more than likely) plastic in your teabags?😱☕ It's something I talk about often, because so many of us don't realise (it took me two years of plastic-free living to find this out myself!). . But also, it's such a simple swap to make: buy loose leaf tea 🌱 (you can use a tea steeper or refillable teabags if you can't be bothered with teapot washing🚿), grow your own herbs to make tea with (mint, lemongrass etc) or look for the few brands that offer plastic-free teabags✅ (yes ,there are a few). . If you were thinking that those silken teabags were made of silk, you'd be mistaken - they are either made of PET (the same plastic as water bottles) or plant-based plastic (sometimes called cornstarch as that sounds less like plastic, but regardless of name they are classified as plastic #7). . If you'd like to know more I've gone into a lot of detail in my latest post up on my website now (treadingmyownpath.com). I'm intrigued... did you already know that there was plastic in teabags or are you just finding out today?!📢 🔹 #zerowaste #lesswaste #zerodechet #ceroresiduo #basuracero #müllfrei #münster #plasticfree #plastikfrei #conciousconsumer #gogreen #waronwaste #ecowarrior #bulk #unverpackt #bio #eco #organic #öko #nachhaltig #sustainable #degrowth #stopconsumerism #noconsumerism #nosingleuse #climatechange #cleanseas
