What happens when coffee’s biggest waste problem becomes its biggest opportunity?

Across cafés, roasteries, and homes, millions of coffee pucks hit landfill every day - but two Australian pioneers are proving that sustainability doesn’t have to be boring, expensive, or impossible through collaboration.

In this episode, Ben sits down with Dion Cohen (Single O) and Ninna Larsen (Reground) to unpack how their “Give a Puck” campaign is set to divert 85 million coffee pucks from landfill in Sydney alone - and why this could reshape how the entire coffee industry thinks about waste.

They share the wins, challenges, and realities of going green in a global industry that’s still catching up - from rethinking single-use cups existence to creating circular supply chains that actually work for our future.

If you’re new here (welcome), our show dives into some of the best coffee conversations on the internet - but we’ll always remind ourselves at the end of the day, It’s Just Coffee!
