All through July I am posting ideas for reducing plastic in our lives. These are small swaps and purchases you can make that will make a big difference to the earth 🌏 and often to your hip pocket 💰 too!
#plasticfreejuly Swap Number 2⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🛢 \ avoid single use COFFEE PODS // 
☕️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Oh so convenient. But OH SO WASTEFUL!!!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Back in November last year, it was estimated that we use over 3 million #coffeepods each day in Australia. That is a disgraceful waste.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It is up to the individual how they rectify this. I think instant coffee is yucky 
🤢 and for some people, buying a “bought coffee” each day is expensive, out of their budget or unnecessary. But as are expensive machines, with a grinder etc.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I must say, freshly ground coffee has to be better for your health (compared with instant coffee) PLEASE think about what you’re doing and WHAT ON EARTH 
🌎

🌏 will happen to all those pods 
😔⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In my research I have found a source of organic coffee pods 
👏🏼
Oliver & Edie do 100% biodegradable pods available from Hello Charlie
Reusable pods are also available from Nourished Life
