I compost all my junk mail - about a carry bag a day including a bit of
other waste paper.
Does anyone know if the panes in the envelopes will biodegrade?
I always take them out because they look like plastic to me.
No they don't - I take mine out as well. Interestingly our local recycling
system will accept envelopes but *not* window envelopes - presumably for the
same reason. (Satisfying putting junk mail on the compost, isn't it.)
