Ever wonder why your teabags don’t decompose? It’s because companies like Barrys Tea uses a petroleum-based plastic called polypropylene to seal their teabags.
Under pressure from Uplift members they promised to remove plastic in 2018 but have been dragging their heels in following through on their promise.
