[i] These facilities create the right conditions,
like high heat and controlled moisture, to turn the pods into
compost. However, they usually can't be composted in a regular
backyard compost bin because those conditions aren't met at home.
Check with your local waste management or composting center to see
if they accept certified compostable items.
