Cut Your Caffine Habit’s Waste

Sometimes it’s the littlest things that can start to make a difference. If you’re a coffee junkie and make a pot of Joe at least once a day, think of all those coffee filters that end up in the trash. Instead, you could use reusable hemp coffee filters.

Some say your coffee will taste better. But there’s no question that you’ll be doing good by saving trees and supporting a hemp, a fast growing crop. Besides, you’ll save money by not having to buy a box of filters every month. Next up? Look for fair trade and organic brews.

Organic coffee tastes better too

Daily Greenz #26

Kalani_coffee_beansThink just because it comes from a tiny bean, it doesn’t hurt the trees? Think again. Kalani Organica Coffees & Teas shows on its website that if you drink conventional, non-organic coffee, the 18 trees used to make your morning cup are washed with an average of 11 lbs. of fertilizers and 8 oz. of pesticides. Now think about the gross-factor in drinking that stuff… Yuck.

There are many sites that sell organic coffee. What makes Kalani so great are all the varieties, starting at $9.50 a pound, plus shipping.
