Tinfoil. Aluminum is extremely easy to recycle. Make coffee pods like soda cans, then toss them into soda can recycling. The smelter doesn't care whether they once held coke or coffee.
- spiderice 3y agoWon't 95% of them get thrown in the trash though? Do soda cans that are thrown in the trash can eventually make their way to recycling? And if not, is it a waste to consider how recyclable they are? There are probably obvious questions to some, but I genuinely don't know.
- Clamchop 3y agoMy experience has been that people are pretty good about recycling cans and plastic bottles. But, the pods might see less compliance. People get iffy if they think something is too dirty to be recycled, and maybe it is, so they have to open it and rinse it first, which also doesn't help compliance...
- nullindividual 3y agoThey’re too small and the recycling plant will filter them out to the trash. They need to be compostable, instead.
