Coffee pods generate 56 billion units of single-use plastic waste globally every year.
Stacked end-to-end, that's enough to wrap the planet about 50 times. The aluminum and plastic pods take roughly 500 years to break down. Less than 10% are actually recycled despite manufacturer claims.
Presses or basic drip makers cost less than a year of pods, produce zero pod waste and the coffee is better.

For some, artificial grass might mean less mud and lower maintenance, letting them swap the lawnmower for a hoover and jet wash. However, artificial lawns negatively impact nature, the environment, people and our pets, and should be avoided where possible. ..."

Fossil Fuels!
The tank WILL spill or blow up.
"....impact the respiratory system, cause skin irritation, eye irritation. (lung irritation and/or or death) The other concern we have is that it is extremely flammable. And in its current state, very reactive, and it can cause that explosion,"
Evacuation 40,000 people
