Plastic #TeaBags Update: How To Avoid Harmful Release

Jan 03, 2025

Excerpt: "Some tea bags are better than others if you want to avoid ingesting plastic. The tea bags studied by the Barcelona scientists contained polypropylene, cellulose and nylon, but there are many tea bags in stores which are plastic free.

"To work out whether your tea bags are free from plastics, check the packaging. Plastic-free brands are likely to use this in their marketing, so check for labels such as 'plastic-free,' 'biodegradable' and 'compostable.'

"If the box says 'PP' (meaning #polypropene), 'PET' (meaning #PolyethyleneTerephthalate) or '#nylon,' that means the tea bags contain plastic.

"Another way to avoid plastic from tea is to switch to loose-leaf tea and a plastic-free tea strainer, such as those made from stainless steel."

Your Cup of Tea Could Contain Billions of Microplastics From One Source

We know that microplastics are leaking into our drinks from bottles, beverage cups, and packaging, and now researchers have shown that plastic kettles can contribute to our daily intake of plastics, too.

Das ging ja rasend schnell! Die Videos vom Domplatz sind heute schon da, zum Nachhören, Weiterleiten und als letzte Motivationshilfe:
Auf zur Wahl!

Danke an alle auf und hinter der Bühne, hinter den Kameras und im Schnitt und natürlich auf dem Platz!

Mention of the #humidity in previous toot - yesterday in the early evening I mopped the kitchen floor and it took FOUR HOURS to dry. It'll have to stay dirty for a while (apart from wiping around catfood area and cleaning up if they bring in a packed lunch, of course): I can't have the path to the kettle blocked.

The forecast for today was sunshine and 40C; it's cloudy and only 30C. Shame the gardener looked at the météo yesterday and cancelled.

As much as I do love #coffee a nice #cuppatea always goes down well in the evening....
That strange feeling of accomplishment when you manage to use all the water in the kettle to fill up exactly the 2 cuppas you wanted

One of my favourite teas is black tea with cinnamon. @ottaross gifted me this extremely mello version and it's delicious 😋 I'd love to see pics of your favourite brew. #tea #cinnamon #CuppaTea
You might say this video is special ‘T’ of mine. 😁😁😁 I think my first cuppa tea came in a baby bottle. Just kidding, or maybe not? #cuppatea #britishhumour #amwriting #epicfantasy #indieauthor #adultfantasy #writingcommunity #fantasybooks #whattoreadnext #bookworm #mustread
