  • K-Cup® Pods CAN be Recycled

    Coffee Beans - K-Cup Pods can be recycled.
    Thumbs Up for Recycling

    The Grounds to Grow On™ recycling service offers workplaces an easy way to collect their brewed Keurig® K-Cup® pods to be recycled. The process is simple: place your brewed pods in the Grounds to Grow On™ bin. Once the bin is full, present the bin with its pre-paid shipping label to UPS for pick-up, or drop it off at to any UPS location. They take it from there, turning the K-Cup® pods into recycled products – like aluminum cans and shipping pallets – and the coffee grounds into compost.

    Yes, there is a fee for the recycling boxes which is substantial, but works out to about eight cents per pod. This is probably a small price to pay to help our environment.

  • Hate Speech from Franklin Graham

    The beauty of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution as clarified by Thomas Jefferson in 1802 is that there is “separation between church and state“. If a certain religion believes a certain way, they should not be influencing how our government enacts and enforces the law.

    After telling presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg to “repent” for being gay earlier this year, Franklin Graham has launched his next hateful attack on the LGBTQ community.

    When Fox News Radio asked Graham about state laws that require LGBT-inclusive curricula in public schools, he replied, “I don’t believe that the schools have the right to teach our children something that is an affront to God… Homosexuality goes against God’s plan for the human race.”

    Under Franklin’s leadership, the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA) has gone from preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ to preaching hatred and Trumpism — yet several mainstream leaders continue to serve on the organization’s board.

    They include executives from Coca-Cola, Panera, and SunTrust Bank, as well as former New Hampshire Governor Stephen Merrill. These are the types of leaders who might listen if enough Christians who believe in Jesus’s message of love call on them to resign in protest! 1

  • National Debt Growing Under Trump

    The CBO (bipartisan Congressional Budget Office) is projecting that the national debt will reach $960 billion for the 2019 fiscal year and probably climb to $1 trillion in 2020 under the Trump Administration.

    Trump cut the tax rate for the wealthy and the money to run the government has to come from somewhere. Thus, the national debt is growing and is unsustainable.
