And so is every Coke bottle with 5 times the plastic. And so is every store-bought coffee. Yet... silence. ๐Ÿฆ—๐Ÿฆ—๐Ÿฆ—

What about bottles? Far more energy requires to melt and pour glass. No one says a word about single use.

Never found a K-cup on the beach or trail, but I pack plastic bags to haul trash and sometimes load 2 or 3.

Yetโ€ฆ silence.

Imagine never reading any news or discussions about environmental impact, but coming in here trying to defend Keurig by doing full whataboutism.

Plastic bottles weren't invented in the 21st century
