Earth Overshoot Day

Earth Overshoot Day

Many tea bags hide a dirty secret: plastic. Microplastics in your cup don’t just harm the environment—they can end up in your body. 

Today is Earth Overshoot Day — the day we’ve used up all the biological resources that our planet can regenerate in a year. For the rest of 2025, we’ll be in an ecological deficit, depleting resources and adding carbon to the atmosphere.

At NEMI Teas, we believe in taking action to #MoveTheDate — pushing Earth Overshoot Day later each year until our resource consumption aligns with what the planet can sustainably provide.

We can all make a difference by:

  • Reducing electricity use 

  • Washing clothes less frequently 

  • Supporting sustainable brands

  • Composting food waste 

  • Reducing plastic use 

  • Eating less meat 

At NEMI Teas, sustainability is at the core of what we do. Our teas are organic, plastic-free, and compostable, so every purchase helps reduce your environmental footprint and supports a healthier planet.

Let’s work together to #MoveTheDate.
