I spend a fair amount of time ripping these out before shredding the rest of my envelope to throw in the compost. I like composting because it reduces household waste, but especially since I started composting, I've noticed how much plastic is in packaging. It would be so much more environmentally friendly if these plastic windows just weren't there. I've heard in some countries, the plastic windows are biodegradable but I wasn't sure here, and I didn't want to risk it.
I don't even want to get started on microplastics in things like tea bags.
