K Cups are killing your kids!

They will remember you by your trash.
Is there more evil greedilism than 4oz water bottles
sold by Coca Cola who hope to package
smart water shots.
Noone asked for them
between super big gulps.

4 oz of water from an undisclosed faucet
plastic wrapped labeled trucked refrigerated
for a lazy sinner's three sips
before spilling infinity.

Wait there's more,
1.6 billion K cups in 2009
3 billion K cups in 2010
5 billion K cups in 2011.

2012?  Americans drink 350 to 400 million coffee cups a day.

Now. 

Keurig engineered this problem,
and saw
mass littering
without  a solution.
Green mountain instead of GREED mountain
16 cents per cup profit.

Trusting, unimpressed?
Pile the kups in your backyard,
check the office closet after a month,
fill the neighborhood,
your kid's world
or dont.

Green Mountain's response:
"K-Cup® Portion Pack Packaging is an area of major environmental concern for all consumer product companies. As the single-cup coffee market and our Keurig brewing systems grow in popularity, we understand that the impact of the K-Cup® Portion Pack waste stream is one of our most significant environmental challenges.  Recycling is difficult.(2008)
