Information for teabag users.
What’s in the (tea) bag?
Do you drink tea and do you use teabags to make your tea? If so, you might want to consider a change. Canadian researchers published results of their research in the journal “Environmental Science and Technology”. In 2016 they carefully removed the tea leaves from plastic-containing teabags Then they carefully rinsed the empty bags before steeping them in water at 95 degrees C for 5 minutes.
ONE TEABAG STEEPED FOR 5 MINUTES RELEASED 11.6 BILLION MICROPLASTIC AND 3.1 BILLION NANOPLASTIC PARTICLES
Did you know you can make tea without using teabags? Alternatively you could search for bags that claim to contain no plastic, which may or may not be true.
I found this information on P40 of the NZ Listener of February 12.

Gardener Needed
I need to hire an experienced gardener to do some weeding and small hedge trimming. A narrow garden around three sides of the house. Won’t have to take the green waste away that will be done for you. Come and look and give me a quote.
