Keurig has agreed to pay $1.5 million in penalties after the Securities and Exchange Commission charged the company with making misleading statements about just how recyclable its popular K-Cup single-use coffee pods are.

Main reason I stopped using those pods, too much waste!
1.5 million isn’t even a slap on the wrist.
At this rate, they would make more money with the greenwashing and just paying the fine every year.
There is a difference between recyclable and recycled. Too many people don’t understand the difference. Literally all plastics are recyclable. Whether they are recycled or not depends on your community and the recycling plan they use.
