Any coffee pod machines that are decent and not awful for the environment?

I've got one of those that I take camping. I find that a Nespresso machine with decent pods makes better coffee tbh, and it's quicker and there's less cleanup.
I should look into whether Nespresso actually recycle their pods after they collect them.
I don't know how or whether they actually recycle them. When you order on their website they do include a recycling bag to send back your used pods. But in order to have them recycled they have to be Nespresso brand pods, not any other brand is accepted unfortunately.

I use their recycling scheme, I'm just a bit sceptical about whether they actually recycle them.
