Tossing some of these in the trash appears to be only slightly worse than tea bags: http://myworldinacup.com/ Just ordered some to try.

Also you can get a reusable filter basket and then grind and dose like a normal person.

Was worried about the same thing when ordering a replacement for an aging Aeropress lately. IIRC Keurig's website says they care about the environment blah blah blah and have been "working on it" for a while, but no concrete promises.

It's an always-on kettle with a semi-pressurized, single-serve coffee maker attached.

PSA: nobody should buy the standard plastic K-Cups.

Some of them don't have the always-on kettle. Mine requires you to pour in water in for each serving, and the Brew button heats it up at that time.
