Default Are K-cups evil for the environment?

Doesn't get any more eco friendly than that.


We do most of that. I chuck the grounds and the paper filter in the
trash that gets burned in the waste to energy plant. The water comes
from the RO but that waste water goes into the pool.
I was really just addressing the yuppies who carry their Ecoli laden
cloth bags to the store in their Prius and then buy a big box of
K-cups.
