To all those Nespresso users out there, lovers of good coffee and probably fans of George Clooney who stars in the said adverts: please remember to recycle your aluminium coffee capsules. Don't get me wrong; I am addicted to this coffee machine and its flavors but let's not forget the planet and how we can best be green.
These capsules, made especially to preserve the coffee's taste and flavour and protect it from light and air, are made of aluminium and should be recycled; too bad Nespresso is not using Clooney's sexiness to encourage this a bit more...
Make a rough calculation, two capsules of coffee per day per person as a minimum makes:
- 14 capsules a week
- approximately 420 capsules a month or,
- about 5,000 aluminium capsules in a year;
It is very easy to clean and recycle: after using the capsules, tear the top and clean the coffee from the capsule under running water, then let dry and put in the recycle bin. It is worth the effort and it will only take 5 minutes of your time.
