The tea bag itself can be made of a number of things, not all of them paper, and the difficulty in cleaning all of the tea out of the bag would make the whole process much too complicated. However, tea bags go wonderfully into compost as they are organic matter and will decompose and return to the earth.

Many people also use a teabag more than once to make tea, and call this recycling.

Why does the water turn brown when a tea bag is added in boiling water?

When a tea bag is placed in water, the water fills the tea bag. The soluble matter of the tea leaves, what essentially makes the tea, then diffuses into the water through the bag. The brown coloring is a result of this process.
