Remove coffee pods from sale
Design a reusable coffee pod and remove single use pods from your product range.
Why is this important?
Coffee pods are designed to fit Nespresso's coffee machines. They are energy intensive to manufacture, use large amounts of aluminium and plastic, and end up in landfill where they pollute our land and water. They are not easily recyclable nor compostable. Nespresso have basically taken a spoonful of ground coffee and over-packaged it to make a lot of money. Even the Chief Executive* resigned in 2016 because he knew it was an environmental disaster in the making. Lets put an end to corporate greed and profit at the expense of our precious planet. #reducewaste
