  One years of used K cups will more than circle the Earth is the big coffee buzz. Okay so what's the problem. This could be said of countless items we use everyday.  The world uses disposable packaging by the countless millions of pounds. With the vast majority disposed of in a proper way.  The most pressing problem with K cups is the cost, not the used K cup that goes into the trash. A cup of coffee from a K cup can be four times the cost of other methods of brewing your morning coffee.  Is a K cup easy to use and  faster? Yes. Faster and easy cost money it's a way of life.  So don't let those used K cups keep you up all night. If the environment is that big of a concern for you then buy an electric car and keep your Kreurig. .

  The waste production of the K-Cup, the non-recyclable, single-serve coffee pods that Keurig machines use, has long been noted. Keurig Green Mountain pledged to create a full recyclable version of its main product by 2020, but estimates say that the Keurig pods buried in 2014 would already circle the Earth 12 times.   Meanwhile, the Keurig’s popularity has made it ever more ubiquitous, bringing it to offices and homes across the country. The company sold a total of 9.8 billion Keurig-brewed portion packs last year, which include the new multiple-cup pods.
